I saw my GP yesterday, told her that the lofepramine I'm on isn't working, she upped the dosage. I didn't fill the script as i'm not convinced that it's the right meds for me, but did a lot of thinking at 4am...
I hadn't gone into details of "not working" being "I feel much worse and more depressed now that i'm on it" plus "I seem to have developed a tendancy to think about plan how to murder that I didn't have before I went on this drug. These murdery feelings last anywhere from hours to days, and I've just had the third one since March when I started on it".
Called the surgery, there are no normal appointments today, just "emergency" ones. I am not going to murder someone today or this weekend (I don't think
), and if I do start feeling murdery I can take my vallium. Hopefully.
BUT. We are going away for two weeks on Weds, and I'm busy all day Tues so the only chance to see someone (pref my GP but anyone will do) is Monday. Or an emergency appointment today.
So, is this an emergency, or should I just carry on with my current dosage (or even carry on with the planned increased Lofepramine, and see what happens?)
