Oh dear, Roslynn. Today doesn't sound so good so far.
Well, did you feel benefits at 75mg.?
Ten days at the 100mg? I would think the sx you describe might have abated by now. I don't know.
My experience of going to higher doses
has, well, both pristiq being pushed to 100mg. and cymbalta being pushed up felt agitating in an odd way, and I felt like, well, both times I cried at the
doctor's to lower my dose (pristiq) or
stop (cymbalta). This is my experience
with snri's (except effexor which I tolerated well enough) and other med categories as well.
When do you consult with your doctor again? It might be worth a call if you
can. Even if you and he (?) decide this is a bump in the road, I think s/he should know. (And your mood and experience acknowledged and not possibly tank.)So sorry right now. You'll get through this. Trials are trying :-/
I dig a pony.
