Hi vmundy2,  and welcome to SA.

 

We need some additional information about your taper.

 

Dr Joseph Glenmullen's Withdrawal Symptoms

 

We ask all members to create a drug signature which will allow us to see your drug history at a glance.

 

Please keep it nice and simple.  We only need details for the last 2 years.  Date, drug and dose only, no symptoms or diagnoses.  The other years can just be an overview.  

 

This is the preferred format which is helpful for the mods.  Thank you.

 

A request: Would you summarize your history in a signature - ALL drugs, doses, dates, and discontinuations & reinstatements, in the last 12-24 months particularly?

  • Please leave out symptoms and diagnoses.
  • A list is easier to understand than one or multiple paragraphs. 
  • Any drugs prior to 24 months ago can just be listed with start and stop years.
  • Please use actual dates or approximate dates (mid-June, Late October) rather than relative time frames (last week, 3 months ago)
  • Spell out months, e.g. "October" or "Oct."; 9/1/2016 can be interpreted as Jan. 9, 2016 or Sept. 1, 2016.

This is your own Intro topic where you can ask questions and journal your progress.  We suggest that members visit each others Intro topics so that can support and encourage each other.

I started weaning off Zoloft back in January 2018, I had a cold and then around February 2018 I started having cold , cough, stiffed up nose . I am still having congestion, and blowing my nose .does anyone think it is due to tapering off not enough,as I was on the AD for 20Years?

Hi,

 

I moved the new topic you created and merged it with your Intro topic.  Each member has an introduction topic where they can ask questions about their own situation and journal their progress.  This keeps your history in one place.

Sorry to hear that. I have no mental reactions. Just the sinus, ear stopped, coughing up mucus. I contacted my GP. She is calling in prednisone. And referring me to ENT. As she thinks this is allergys, but I have never had something like this
