New letter to my GP's practice


Claudius

Recommended Posts

Dear people,

Some of the members of the other side will maybe remember I wrote a letter to my GP about one year ago. In short, I demandwed full medcal recongition and asked for assistence to report my terrible experience with PAxil to the authorities. Unfortantely, she did not get any of my message.

I am preparing a new letter now, it is not finished yet but will already share my draft. I took it through Google transaltor so the Englist is crappy at times....

 

 

Hometown, June 2011

 

Subject: Complaint about treatment and health performance and handling previous GP

 

 

Dear Ms. .......

 

 

Already last year I wrote to my GP Dr. S. XXXX on my own findings and advanced understanding of my extremely severe and prolonged illness in late 2007 came after discontinuation of 10 mg of Paxil (paroxetine / Paxil) since 2002 I have a prescription from my doctor then F. XXXXXXX used.

I had this letter is underlined that it was not meant as a complaint but I have wanted to share my findings and in particular the following issues would go through:

Full-medical recognition of my "protracted withdrawel syndrome" by the incorrect and off-label prescribed a highly addictive antidepressant without any professional guidance by my former family doctor

-Report to the regulatory authorities as I have shown that in the medical community has insufficient knowledge about the correct afkickverschijselen of SSRI drugs and rehab schedules

 

Shortly after sending this letter I was called by Dr. XXXXXX for a consultation. It turned out that she had read a portion of my letter and its annexes and again refused the connection between my long and gruesome symptoms to confirm. Also she not address my request to help me to report this experience in order to contribute to this knowledge and other traps. Dr. XXXXXX said only that this "I still could not prove."

In my response to this remark, I told again that I spent three years already 5 times with the drug was stopped and every time after exactly six weeks from one day to the sick was verschijsnelen that no relationship was the reason for prescribing : severe diarrhea and intestinal cramps, excruciating electrical current shoots through mind and body and congitieve total shutdown. And that these complaints vrijwl immediately disappeared after restarting the drug, which voglens the article by Professor David Healy, that all these problems is defining accurately, a onomstoelijke aanwiizing is that it comes to withdrawal / withdrawel and no return of depression (the direct reason for writing was to me the way secondary stuttering by Dr. Nieuwesteeg was "diagnosed" as a "phobia"). I asked Dr. X's much more evidence they wanted me just totally addicted to the stuff, they replied that they "could say nothing about".

Afterwards beroop me a very onaangeaam feeling that my own GP during a eeerder calls will described as "scientist" apparently, unfortunately like many other doctors in this area her mind off and go along with the denial of something so fully clear what is and as can be proved conclusively. However, I do not have the time and the patience to wait another year until the medical community finally has to acknowledge this.

 

Meanwhile I have so through the website of my experience Lareb reported.

 

 

Just a few months ago, I searched my still ever-present desire for recognition and sharing my knowledge with you contact me because the pharmacist had heard that some pharmacists more than knowledge of these resources (family) doctors. As I said a very bad reaction to an agent had responded immediately to the now sadly familiar to me acrimony when it comes to these funds by saying that I had no medication for several years collected. Which of course is true because my last dose was in September 2007, a few weeks later once the unimaginable hell of the protracted withdrawel alienation.

She was, however, to say that "the last molecule has long been out of my body" and this is nothing more to do with my problems could have. For there to add that "the drug causes no lasting changes because otherwise never be allowed, and I only had to find contact with my doctor.

And this is another example of serious ignorance combined with a shocking cynicism: as in all publications and user experience seems STARTED withdrawal symptoms just as the drug-too quickly-from your system is unplugged and stop it by no means the drug is no longer detectable in the blood.

Even a child can understand this and any good addiction expert will therefore be an abrupt "cold turkey" stop of a physically addictive drug discouraged just because a too rapid decrease in the concentration of the psychoactive agent where your body years to set is not is maintained through the brains with the possible consequence of destabilization of the central nervous all potentially devastating physical and mental symptoms that entails.

Both arguments from your pharmacist are just ridiculous to mention, firstly, the whole "therapeutic effect" of these resources based on the chemical / fysiologsche changes that the drug causes the brains in the literature as "downregulation" of receptors, Therefore, it usually takes several weeks before the therapeutic effect is noticeable even increases serotonin in the synapses almost immediately after starting the drug.

And second, the approval of the drug based on clinical trials at the time of admission of paroxetine early 90s, using animals that do not make mention of bizarre physical and / or mental verschijsnelen and subjects taking the drug in the trials have used up to 6-8 weeks.

Logically long-term effects and withdrawal symptoms after long use only clearly mapped by the feedback of (ex) users in all phases of using easy to follow and very seriously. Even a drug as softenon / thalidomide was initially approved but was rightly found that when the market had very serious side effects (birth defects) that are apparently not occurred in clinical trials had come. In this case, it is difficult industry could be dismissed as "return of the original condition"!

 

The many subsequent reports of unbearable ontwenningsverschijsnelen, now the industry euphemistically "SSRI discontinuation syndrome", are by manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) is simply ignored, routinely dismissed as "recurrence or worsening of the original pathology" and the inspection authorities insufficient or not arrested and that is obviously not to blame us.

The comment by your pharmacist any timber so cut, shows a shocking lack of knowledge and was very misleading, except that I am now fully informed and for me it makes no difference. But it is precisely this crude thinking errors that lead to the withdrawal syndrome is widely mis-diagnosed, afkickverschijsenelen dismissed, trivialized, attributed to the "original condition" or be denied, people in prescribing not be educated and do not supports secure these funds collected be. I've heard from several people that their doctor advised them to just stop (because the drug was not addictive) or, even worse, to be built by alternating, or every other day to swallow. Unlike some other agents, including benzodiazepines, SSRIs should always be swallowed on a daily basis with a consistent dose. And can therefore only reduce the daily dosage safely done by reducing every thing which only mogeljk is using a customized suspension or tablets / capsules.

And just continue this practice because of reports of people do not even be passed to the relevant bodies, I've mentioned previously that have to do because the doctor not to cooperate.

 

The following quote in response to the story of an English boy band singer who describes his struggle to get rid of Paxil indicates that, fortunately, even doctors who know what the implications of stopping this "medication". And the moderator gives a better description of what this "medicine" really is.

Seroxat is indiscriminate in it's propensity to enslave. Addictive is what is Seroxat. Recently i got to know another victim who was Prescribed Seroxat it for two years, her doctor told her if she came off it cold turkey that she Could. This is the severity of Seroxat addiction, dependence and withdrawel. A truly nasty chemical, intolerable for human consumption, a Drug That Should have never been Licenced.

Also show people in SSRI withdrawel often very impulsive, aggressive and over-emotional behavior and to me was that in the extreme case. When I joined GZL I was already several months into withdrawel and consequently in a deplorable condition in which my plague past in such a violent degree in the foreground had come that I was able to have this person who I am 20 years had not seen for who I am sure almost 15 years had not thought to murder. And with the many reports of shootings and family dramas under the influence of SSRIs or after stopping so suddenly become quite understandable.

See http://www.ssristories.com a macabre anthology hievan, which undoubtedly just the tip of the iceberg because the climate of the denial usually associated with an SSRI is not even laid.

And because an accident is often only a short time in early 2009, I lost a large sum of money due to the financial crisis, and even there I have had several meetings with the tears on my face about it. Perhaps it helped that I no longer was taken very seriously, and this is one of many bitter paradoxes of the SSRI "Roadway to Hell".

 

 

Paroxetine

For the first 10 years of paroxetine's availability, GlaxoSmithKline's marketing of the drug Stated falsely thats it was "not habit forming." [37] In 2001, the BBC reported the World Health Organization had found paroxetine to have the hardest withdrawel problems or any antidepressant . [38] In 2002, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration published a new product warning about the drug, and the International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Associations (IFPMA) declared GSK guilty of misleading the public about paroxetine on U.S. television. [39] The British Medical Journal quoted Charles Medawar, head of Social Audit: "This Has Been drug promoted for years as safe and easy to discontinuous .... The fact thats it can cause intolerable withdrawel symptoms of the child That Could lead to dependence is enormously important to patient, doctors, investors, and the company. GlaxoSmithKline HAS evaded the issue since it was Granted a license for paroxetine over 10 years ago, and the drug HAS become a blockbuster for em, generating about a tenth of Their entire revenue. The company Has Been Promoting paroxetine directly to consumer as' Non-habit forming "for far too long." [39]

On 22 December 2006, a U.S. court in Hoorman Decided, et al v. SmithKline Beecham Corp. That Individuals who Purchased Paxil ® or Paxil CR (paroxetine) for a Minor Child May Be Eligible for Benefits under a $ 63.8 million Proposed Settlement. [40] The lawsuit stemmed from a consumer advocate protest against Paroxetine manufacturer GSK. Since the FDA approved paroxetine in 1992, approximately 5000 U.S. Citizens - and Thousands more worldwide - have sued GSK. Most people feel or thesis They Were not sufficiently warned in advance of the drug's side effects and addictive properties.

According To the Paxil Protest website, [41] Hundreds more lawsuits have filed against GSK leg. The original Paxil Protest website was removed from the Internet in 2006. It's Understood That the action to take down the site was under-taken as part of a confidentiality agreement or 'gagging order' which the owner of the site as part of a write Entered settlement of His action against GlaxoSmithKline. (However, in March 2007, the website Seroxat Secrets [42] discovered an archive of Paxil Protest That site [43] was still available on the internet via Archive.org)

...

In March 2008 the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency concluded That Should Have GSK warned of the ill effects of taking Paxil Possible a lot Sooner. [46] GSK Could not be prosecuted under the old législation.

As of 2008, GlaxoSmithKline's prescribing information acknowledges that "serious discontinuation symptoms" may Occurs [47].

(Source: # http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GlaxoSmithKline Paroxetine, the notes refer to the publications on this page to oospronkelijke)

 

 

The package insert of the new drug Cymbalta (duloxetine) shows that this practice unfortunately still be put where the leaflet states that the capslues not be eyes made clear from the comments that opening the capsule is the only way for the medication to building manufacturer because Lilly's infinite wisdom is not enough pills with low dose nor a suspension of t he means available. See Annex X

 

 

I imagine the view that there is literally my life but I have an intense and years of suffering I have endured the consequences of a very harmful and dangerous "designer drug" which is an insult to the term "drug" whose implicit meaning is that it has a healing effect. And much of the medical profession itself was misled and / or in denial regarding the side effects and potentially life-threatening (protracted) withdrawel syndrome despite the overwhelming amount of anecdotal evidence from ten to hundreds of thousands of subjects and research of some very involved, and not driven by profit researchers like Dr. David Healy, Dr. Peter Breggin, Dr. Joseph Glen Mullen and Dr. Robert Whitaker.

And many publications indicate that the pharmaceutical industry are long (at least since 2002) was aware of but deliberately withheld information that I and many others are victims. Not to mention the victims who no longer been able to tell because of the horrific physical / mental symptoms, the long inability to normally funcitoneren and an income gain in conjunction with the medical wall where it runs up against people in a state brings that the only way out is suicide. And I'm been very close and would almost certainly have done if I had no financial reserve, even though depression / moodiness never belonged to my character.

 

My requirements as stated in my previous letter to Dr. X's are still standing, full medical recognition of my protracted withdrawel syndrome and write them into my medical records, together with a review of the range of misdiagnosis and denial of essential reduction information by my former family doctor and the psychiatrist I consulted about this already in 2007 that led to this end.

My second requirement, reporting to the authorities of my experience, I now own my account taken of them so I do not expect more action from the health center.

Well, I wish an explanation for why Dr. X's request not to have met with each patient should have the right to report adverse events and that a doctor would expect cooperation. The onmogeljkheid with a means to stop without going through an unimaginable hell to go because of terrible verschijsnelen not gelatie with the reason for writing is hardly a "side" are called according to some sources just a manufacturer of desired effect !

 

I would also like to know what steps the GCL is now put to better inform people about the risks of these drugs, existing users with information on the only proper rehab regimen (dose by 5-10% per 3-6 weeks with lower Using the suspension or customized pills) and what contribution the GSL on the basis of my experience might be able to deliver the maximum reduction in the use of these harmful agents that no disease cure and people are really just chronically ill dependent on the bankruptcy system in all respects and that psychiatry is called under the false pretense that they are cured.

 

 

And I take this time no longer satisfied with new denials of my findings, references to outdated and incorrect / incomplete protocols or guidelines, silly bromides like "You can all be found on the Internet", whole and half untruths or otherwise to be fobbed off and will or even as long fight until I recognize you for the erroneous and dangerous treatment of stress / tension complaints I in 2002 for some time, and for which I sought help from my doctor, the total lack of supervision while using one of the most controversial and dangerous "drugs" in history, the denial of essential and potentially lifesaving (discontinuation / withdrawal) information and finally the completely erroneous and misleading information I received from doctors and pharmacists.

And if necessary I will to go ahead with the Supreme Court and will not hesitate for a copy of this letter sent to all media who are interested show.

Because I do not my verantowoodelijheid find for another doctor to look for and also the most huiartspraktijken Utrecht strict zip code policies apply wish I registered to stay at GCL, although it alone if I get a referral for a (non-psychiatric specialist) would need.

If my last doctor after carefully going over my letter, the light can not see I wish another doctor who is aware or is informed to make and uncooperative in lifelong dependence on people to dangerous psychiatric drugs or refuses to condemn these practices.

In any case, send me a short-term confirmation of receipt of my letter.

 

Sincerely,

Claudius XXXXXXX

Claudius, you might also mention that prolonged antidepressant withdrawal syndrome is being studied for publication in scientific journals, see Researchers seek prolonged antidepressant withdrawal cases

Thanks Alto I will surely use a reference to it.

And though I state that I do not take lies and other b***s*** anymore, I know I have in fact no fist to beat with and am still pretty powerless if they dismiss and ignore my letter again... But there is not much more we can do and I will just stand for myself and stand up against injustice which is also one of the things I learned during the whole traject... :)

 

Oh and I noticed one of the links has been censored and it is the link to what is mostly called "the other side" or by its abbreviation PP. I think many of us had our reasons to move to SA but is it really not allowed to mention the other side anymore?

You can mention them but this is our protest against what they did -- they deleted all posts referring to prolonged withdrawal syndrome.

OK this makes sense. I will never understand why that site, the first one in educating about WD and tapering and a life saver for so many, has chosen for this defective attitude.... but I have heared it from other people too.

WEll, after making a few modifications, I finally sent my letter today by post to the person resposible for handling complaints about your GP. Though the issue is more compplicated because more GP's and psychiatrist were involved and it is impossible to blame only one of them, and besides the root cause lies in the defective leaflet information.

But I decided to issue the complaint because I am now without GP and it will not make my situation easier to maintain my work inability payings while I have completely no medical supervision. It is of course hardly possible to explain that you deliberately do not visit a doctor. Now I can make the statement that in my opinion I got disabled by a defective and dangerous treatment and have issued a complaint about that, effectively put the ball at the GP office.

I played it pretty hard this time, I will keep you informed about the reaction.
