Questions about Abilify again. I re-started it after app. a 10 day hiatus.
I got sick and very tired and stopped it after taking it for 3 weeks. Up until then it had been helping at 2.5-5mg daily.
Dr. said my eears looked infected and started me on Doxycycline for 10 days. After about a week off of Abilify there was a noticable decline in mood and energy so I restarted it. Almost immediately it started to help again. Unfortunately, after finishing my course of Doxy I started to feel yuckky again. Vague symptoms. Mainly headaches again, scratchy throat, tiresdness (sleeping alot) and then last night another bout of chills and fever(99.5) at bedtime. Slept forever and woke with a bad headache, weakness and just a general ill feeling. Went to dr. and there is no sign of overt infection, just fluid in my ears. I am getting another course of antibiotics and hydro syrup with gui and tussin. (he checked and said this is ok w/ EMSAM)
Here is my concern.....Could my symptoms-fevers, headaches, malaise be from abilify at all? Or do you think it is just coincedental?
Anyone have any ideas or input? I really appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks!
Kaye
