Usually they say to give a new medication 2-4 weeks, but I feel worse than what I'm on medicine for and my newborn needs me now. I'm so dizzy I feel like falling, so nauseous I run to toilet, my head is pounding and when he cries (all he wants is to be held and bounced a little; he positivity screams in his basket) My partner isn't in the house and can't come home immediately and this onset a couple of hours after taking the new med.
I really don't want to take my daily dose tomorrow, but I don't know if the doctors will support me quitting straight off the bat like this. Thoughts?
(Note: baby has now decided he's going to fall asleep on my chest and sometimes smiles so thank goodness!)

New medicine, first dose, feeling wretched. Do I phone gp or will they tell me to stick it out?
