Ugh! I hate to admit it, but I am a salt junkie pertaining to prepared foods. I know that my sodium intake has to be part of the problem at least, if not all.
My pdoc stated that he is going to phone Glaxo-Welcome (makers of Wellbutrin, or whoever makes the stuff) and ask if my edema might be resulting from that whopping 450 mgs. each day.Oh yes, BTW, I did discuss lowering my Wellburtrin SR 150 mgs., take 3 in the morning (although I would at times, take them at night to help me fall asleep faster than with the Dexedrin alone....) and
I have his support to SLOWLY wean off of it altogether and find antoher AD (although I additionaly take 60 mg of Celexa daily.... which later I'll try to wean off of SLOWLY, if he so allows it. - I have a terrible tendency to simply just stop taking medicines that I've been on for a rather significant time. Luckily I've not yet had some serious problems. It's a habit I'm trying to break. I'm way to impulsive and hate waiting on anything. Want it all yesterday, as how I once heard it adroitly stated. (giggle)Sorry for my rambling and jumping around in regards to topic, my AD(H)D is still giving me a terrible time. Luckily however, I will soon be switching from Dexedrine to Desoxyn (my pdoc thinks this really may make a differnce. Jeez... I do hope so b/c running at this pace and feeling like I can't hold a thought is a uncomfortable and ebmarrassing way to exist.
As Always... Thanks, dear Kazoo,
