Don’t Hear I Shout You! Reflections, Rants & Metaphysics Along the Way

WelbYOUtrin & C ymb*lta bad together for this guy

June 23, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Haven’t felt like posting as I added a heavy duty headache to the litany of thing to cope with. Long story short,turns out that the addition of the WelB YOU trin (I write like this so my blog doesn’t get marked as a spam site btw) to the C ymb*lt_a caused MAJOR hyperactivity and tension, which took up residence in my jaw, neck and head. {look under “SNRI Anti-depressants“in wikipedia or google to learn about these newer meds}

Aside from a major pity party I threw for myself [self-deprecating humor] — which of course only made it worse I then tried all the usual, self-hypnosis, deep breathing, stretches etc (even took a muscle-relaxant)– none of which could relax it. Finally went to VA ECU. After quite a bit to do at the VA, the docs agreed that I had to stop the Well byou Trin asap. Gave me some sort of shot (antiinflammatory) and then PO 600mg ibuprofen for next day or so — then it finally went away. Sheesh, made me almost appreciative for the neuropathy and even the sciatica, which I’ve learned how to do alot with. The headache thing rendered me pretty much worthless and horizontal.

Anyway, now that I’m back in the flow of things I’m catching up on all the stuff I didn’t do when the headache from hell hit…it wasn’t migraine but I think it gave me sympathy for what Migraine sufferers go through. But, pain is so subjective anyway.
