deg1979 Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 @Lindsay625, yes, thank you. You are giving us adverse reaction ladies hope! Your experience sounds very similar to mine, except that I got mixed up in some low, sporadic doses of Ativan and Klonopin (prescribed by those ever helpful psychiatric drs). I am three months out from my adverse reaction. Thank you for updating and letting us know how you have healed! How long did you do low sugar/keto? I have noticed sugar is a trigger for my waves. And dairy (darnit). I relate to so, so much of your posts. 1 9/3/21-9/8/21--6 doses 2.5 mg escitalopram (adverse reaction) 9/9/21-9/16/21-5 doses .5 mg lorazepam 9/17/21-10/17/21-.25 mg clonazepam (used at bedtime 2-3x/week) 9/19/21-present-25 mg hydroxyzine (3x daily for anxiety) MTHFR C667T homozygous mutation COMT val/val homozygous mutation Supplements: 300 mg magnesium glycinate, ProBiota HistaminX, SmartyPants women’s multi, .5 mg melatonin, starting trial of methylated B complex Link to comment
