Title: Doctor took me off Lithium?
Post by lydia nichole on Jul 25th, 2012 at 12:25pm
So i was in the ER again last night because off Multiple K10 in 24 hours and triptains where not aborting, Neither was dilaudid, So they gave me DHE, toradol, reglan, and something that started with a A cannot remember the name but it was to help calm me down because the triptains once again caused me to have a massive panic attack, anyway i am better today so far but my doctor called me last night at 10pm and informed me to slowly start weening myself off the Lithum because he thinks it may be doing more harm then good and i agree, since i started it, my headaches have gotten stronger, extreme nausea all day, i think my hair may be falling out because of it, and more frequent headaches. he has upped my dosage of verapamil to 240mg i no still low but i will be increasing again on the 13th as long as my BP checks out OK, and Topamax to 250mg a day he is sending me DHE samples and prescriptions to my house today so i don't have to miss anymore work ( i love my Neurologist..... He is the best ). has anyone else noticed more headaches or problems on the Lithum?

A is probably for Ativan.
