More of the same...

Man oh man... the first night after taking a whole Paxil & an Elavil, which was Wednesday morning. Bad choice. Instead of getting better, it just got worse. By the time I got to work that night I felt like my arms & legs were going to fall off. My eyes hurt - everything was soooo bright. But I still don't know if it was lack of sleep or Ambien withdrawal or the new meds or what. My b.p. was really, really low, too. Thursday night I felt pretty crappy, too - even tho I had halved the Paxil.

I still couldn't sleep that well on Friday morning. Woke up around 1, tossed, turned. Fall half asleep & wake up again. Clock-watching. Called in for Friday night. Spent most of last night drooped over the couch. Couldn't really futz around w/the computer because my eyes still hurt. Today it's a little better. I still feel fuzzy & a little disjointed. I don't know which one's doing it - the Paxil or the Elavil, but one of them is dropping my b.p. to below-normal ranges.

I've been taking half-doses of the Paxil for the past 2 days - if I take another whole one next week, & it does to me what it did Weds. night, I'm going back to the doc & telling him, "No more! I'll just be depressed, damn it!"
