no more florinef

[buddysmom1]

I started florinef about 2 weeks ago if you all remember at .2mg I could not tolerate the side effects, I was getting high blood pressure and light headed. I then went down too .1mg and I still can't tolerate that, my BP when I am laying down went from normal to 160/100 now I can't sleep I think b/c I get headaches with the high BP's now the MD told me to stop the florinef and go on Paxil as that helps re-regulate the nervous system as well UGH I feel bad because the florinef was working well with lowering my heart rate.

Had to go to ER yesterday very bad standing intolerance and very high heart rate and high BP, saw my Dr. he switched a lot of my meds and started me on ateolol, I took this when I first got ill I had been on atenlol and its prozac that I am starting at 20mg a day I have not started that as I want too see how I handle the atenlol as prior too this I could not handle the beta blockers any of them. But I think since I started the clonodine patch about a month ago it calmed down my whole nervous system and now I can take more meds, well maybe I only just started the atenlol. What he told me is that I should take the florinef only on a really bad day when I can't stop urinating, which happens too me quite often but not every day what I am going too do it only take it on my very bad days. I don't know this is like an up and down battle ok take care I will let you know how the prozac works but I am not going to start it for a couple of days it take 5-8 weeks to work per MD

hi,

it    often amazes  me what strong affect a    wee little   pill can   cause!
so soorry you have to switch up meds, it can take some time to find something to help .
I take  .1mg and think maybe it has lost itss effectiveness,   b ut .1 x2 day i can't do for side effects. I'll bring up paxil next appt. tanks for mentioning.

I hope youu feel better soon want to here how the paxil helps.
take  care, amo
