The answer I was looking for?

Well, some of you wanted an update after my doctors appt. today.  For one, the doctor really did not think that I was pregnant (BIG sigh of relief -AAAAHHHHHHH), my IBS symptoms are colonitus (not sure what this is but I'm going to TRY to remain calm and stay off of the internet researching :-) ) because he did not seem like it was a big deal and told me to take Correctol until my system straightened out.  I have also torn a tendon or ligament or something (only half listening because I was still reveling in the fact that he did not think I was preg.) that connects my leg to the rest of me.  I recently started the gym and while doing some inner and outer thigh machines I was fairly certain I heard something rip.  Yeah, he said I probably did hear it, it's pretty bad.  Anyway, some advil will help w/ the pain and I am supposed to keep my weight off of it for 4-6 weeks and it will repair itself, and heat - lots of heat.  So, I don't have a hernia in which my intestines are going to be strangled causing me to DIE!  It was my first time to this doctor and I loved, LOVED him!!  He spent over an hour talking to me about all sorts of things and was the first doctor I've seen in a very long time that did not look at me or treat me like I was some nut-job.  Also got a prescription for Buspar which he said compliments my Lexapro very well.  Hopefully I will get both into my system soon and feel soooo much better.

Sounds like a good report!  Glad to hear it!  I take buspar also with my paxil.  yes, it does help.  I felt the effects very quickly.....helped calm me a little more and not wake up with the terrible nausea and anxiety I was feeling every morning.  I hope you have great results also!
