You have been so wonderful in responding, I appreciate all of the support and advice I have received, you are all incredible people.
Just got back from my pdoc appt. and he wants me to lower the zoloft to 75mg, lower the trileptal to 150 x 2 per day, and he added a new med called Strattera. I guess it just came out this month and he stated if it is going to work, I will know immediately. Does anyone know anything about it?I know it is used to treat adhd in children and is not an amphetemine. I asked him about the Lexapro again and he advised giving this a shot first.
Many of you brought up hypothyroidism and I do in fact have it and am on a low dose of synthroid. Should I ask my doc to switch me to a T3/T4 med as you suggested? I am very afraid of going in the opposite direction and becoming hyperthyroid. Since extreme anxiety is my biggest problem, that would be a nightmare for me.
Many thanks,
Nicole
