> Recently my girl was put on Lex.. about 4 mnths ago... her skin is a wreck now the doc keep uping her dose. I dont really understand why? she's taking 20's and she forgets evrything.. her asthma attacks are almost dayly now.. the used to be weekly(pre-Lex) and shes become a binge sleeper... She's an absolute freak in the bed.. she's always horney.. but I feel like shes a whole different person.. she used to be on zoloft and before that welbutrin and those were much kinder to her.. I think the docotrs are paid to push this crap.. I know she needs something but am I crazy here.. or does this all seem messed up.. thanks.. Plaese respond and let me know your opinions.. People who R or were on LEx.. I want to here the voices of experience.. Thanks - KRUNK
Have been on Lex 15mos., started @5mg, currently @30mg. Had a rash first couple of weeks but it went away, no other skin problems. Have a *forgetfulness* problem too, but had it before I started Lex. No asthma either. Was an insomniac befor Lex, now I fall asleep easily and sleep soundly through the nite. By day, drink coffee to motivate, and have found if I get up and start moving that ole *Lex Lethargy* vanishes. As for bedroom, it takes longer. I do feel like a different person.....the much happier person I used to be long ago. Lex has done wonders controlling my PMS!!!
Best of luck to you both~~~8|8
