starting wellbutrin

Hi,
I had a major depression in 1994. I took zoloft for about
2 years, but started feeling anxious. I switched to
serzone and stayed on that feeling pretty good for 5 years.
Recently I started having depressive symptoms, so my doctor
started me on wellbutrin 100 SR every morning one week ago,
and told me to stay with my zerzone dosage (300/day).

I really felt better. I could get out of bed, felt more
rested, slept better, wasn't so TIRED during the day,
could concentrate, etc.
After about 4 days, when I took my serzone in the
late afternoon, I got some blurry vision. By morning
it was better.

My gut feeling is that this is not from the wellbutrin,
but maybe the interaction of the 2 drugs ? because I only get
it after taking serzone now.
Is it possible that this side effect will go away soon ?

The benefits so far from wellbutrin are too significant
for me to just stop taking this right now, if the
blurry vision might go away. I would rather try to
wean off serzone-- see how the vision is for a while.

What do you think ? I see my doc in 3 weeks, unless I call
him sooner.

It sounds like a good reasonable plan with no real downsize, but if you have any more symptoms, check with your doctor.
