Pens Posted March 21, 2022 Author Share Posted March 21, 2022 @AltostrataHi, Joined a group on Facebook that helped With pre-Gabilan withdrawal. That Group is dissolved and joined up with SA. I have been tapering sertraline, but now I am tapering pregabolin. I was getting a rash on my forearms and thought 58 minutes ago, Altostrata said: What is your tapering-related question? maybe the Pregabalin was the cause. So I am only tapering the Pregabalin right now. I have made up a new signature for my profile and @Shepsaid they would help me post it as I am having trouble changing my old one. I’m hoping it makes more sense. I don’t have any tapering question at the moment. I’m trying to go slow and I’m going to try and hold longer. 2017–20 18 sertraline 50 mg 2018 Pristiq 50 mg 2018 Ciprolex 10 mg 2019 bupropion 150 mg 2019 to 2020 Mirtazapine 7.5 mg 2019 clonazepam 0.5 mg 2020 escitolopram 10 mg 2020 May Pre-Gabalin 150 mg, June sertraline 100 mg to 50 mg, December pre Gabalin 110 mg 2021, December pre-Gabalin 53.5 mg to 48 mg, December sertraline 38.8 mg to 38 mg 2022, January sertraline 38 mg to 36 mg, February sertraline 36 mg to 34 mg, March pre-Gabalin 48 mg to 46.2 mg, April 5 sertraline 34 mg to 33.6 mg., April 24, Sertraline 33.6 mg to 32.9 mg, April 24, stopped Calcium citrate 150 mg, May 4 melatonin 1.25, reducing melatonin see posts., May 2, Brand change on sertraline and pregabalin May 13 Sertraline 31.2 mg May 21 Sertraline 30.8 mg, May 28, Sertraline 30 mg, June 6 29.2 mg, June 16, 29.2 mg to 28 mg.

Moderator Emeritus Shep Posted March 21, 2022 Moderator Emeritus Share Posted March 21, 2022 9 hours ago, Pens said: I guess I should’ve asked is it OK if I continue posting as a member here, Of course you can continue posting here as a member. Alto was just wondering how we can assist you since you didn't post any questions. But if you want to leave a daily list of drugs and symptoms, please feel free to do so. It will make it easier for us if and when you do have questions. 10 hours ago, Pens said: @Shepsaid they would help me post it as I am having trouble changing my old one. I’m hoping it makes more sense. Your signature is updated. Please note I left your previous notes in your signature (so it's a combination of both your new one and the old one), as the older notes were more detailed about some of your recent changes. I also highlighted your last entry to make it easier for the staff to see exactly where you're at now. Link to comment
Pens Posted March 21, 2022 Author Share Posted March 21, 2022 Thankyou that means a lot. I don’t think I could have made it this far without the wisdom and caring from this group.

Morning Alto, this morning around 4:30 am, I paid more attention to my arms and discovered that they were red and warm on my forearms but not itchy. I took my pregabalin at 6:00 am and by 6:30 they had cleared up. I will watch them again and post it. Maybe rash isn’t the right word it looks more flushed.

Pens Posted March 29, 2022 Author Share Posted March 29, 2022 @Shephi, I wonder if the last line in my signature could be changed to tapering sertraline because I’m going to leave the pre-Gabalin alone for a while and try to come off the sertraline since it’s more stimulating and I may be having trouble with the SSRIs anyway.

If there's a change (good or bad), you won't know if it's from the change in melatonin or stopping the B12. On 3/25/2022 at 12:45 PM, Pens said: changed pharmacies couple weeks ago, filler and capsules is probably different. Did symptom get worse after this change? If so, it may not be the supplements. 16 hours ago, Pens said: I’m going to hold everything though right now for a while, I’m in my fourth week of holding, side effects are rough so I’m going to wait until I stabilize before I think about tapering anymore sertraline.

Moderator Emeritus Shep Posted March 31, 2022 Moderator Emeritus Share Posted March 31, 2022 22 hours ago, Pens said: I tried to edit it again and I keep getting a red strip that says that my signature does not meet the guidelines. All I did was try and take the word tapering off the end of the sentence. That's very odd. No worries. I removed the word "tapering" at the end of that sentence. By the way, did you copy and paste your signature in from another program (such as Word)? That can sometimes give unpredictable results in the signature block for some reason. 22 hours ago, Pens said: Yes they did seem to get worse that’s why I thought it was worth mentioning You may have had a change in brand. If so, this can cause an uptick in symptoms. Holding everything steady for a while will help get your nervous system used to the new brand and settled down. Link to comment

Sometimes paradoxical reactions or other side effects can occur from large, abrupt changes. Easing in at 50 mg increments every few days may help your body adjust more easily. Link to comment
