Common Questions and Answers about Zoloft side effects bloody nose

zoloft

Treatment has different effects on different people, and you could be experiencing something related to its side effects. If nosebleeds are atypical for you, you should contact your treatment nurse/physician and report it. My husband had very low platelets during treatment, and had clotting issues and persistent nosebleeds... do you know what your platelets were at last draw, was it recent?
Ever since starting the medications, I am having constant bloody noses (3-4 per week). Yesterday, I was watching a movie and my gums started to bleed randomly. I spit out a couple table spoons of blood. Anyone else experienced this? I asked the doctor and she said not to worry about it with no further follow up. This has been going on for several weeks. Is it time for a second opinion? This is getting kind of old.

Fine until end March 2007. Didn't feel well, body aches and pains. Right before Easter, Got bad bloody nose at work and almost passed out at work. Dr. said probably suffering a virus. After still not feeling well 1 week later, dr. said medication not working, changed to regular Zoloft. Still not well 1 month later. Switched to 10 mg. Lexapro. Anxiety fine whole time, but truly never relaxed and hated it. Wanted to start having family spring/summer 2008. Ween off started September 2008.
Which is weird and I don't want my Dear Husband to go away without me knowing when he will come back. Also weird. No Tramadol stuff. Bronchitis side effects only. YAY! I don't wanna get too excited but MAN it was nice after the last few days! No drug thoughts except early morning wake up Demons which I avoid by practically jumping out of bed! How are you all doing? Let me know ok? It does get better ... even on days when it is bad.
Newleaf is si right..you just have to tough it out, if you want to try and help yourself. DITTO! I had many sx while txing and for me a struggle everyday..not pleasant to be ill for 55 weeks.. However I did what I set out to do. Wish you well.
Collagenous/microscopic colitis is something my GP had never heard of, and it is different from ulcerative colitis (of which bloody stool is a side effect). The problem with collagen lining the intestines is that it's like a layer of fat which keeps the intestines from absorbing anything well -- including liquids and foods. Hence, the chronic watery diarrhea 20+ times a day (every time I ate or drank ANYTHING.) I NEVER passed blood, and I was still very, very ill.
When I pull my jaw forward on the right side, I have to swallow from my sinus draining down the right side throat. I ONLY have diagnosed sinus infections on the right side, along with bloody noses ONLY on the right side (one would not stop and I ended up with a balloon catheter in my sinus for a weekend). The hearing in my right ear deep inside seems drowned out compared to my left ear hearing.
My eyes were extremely red, and I had extremely painful bubbly sensation in the front of of brain to a little beyond the temples, bloody scab-like hard mucus (boogers) out of my nose, and bloody noses everyday. After realizing that it was the couch, I immediately got rid of it and it eventually got better over time, but not perfect, I still get that bubbly sensation, but not nearly as intense and my nostrils do scab up, out of the blue from tie to time.
Welcome to the forum! Thanks for sharing your stats. Am 45, geno 3a, could not have bx due to slow blood coagulation. Am now on week 13 of SOC. Been weak and fatigued from the beginning and it is not getting any better. You can check out my journal, if you like. I have put in a little every week, a quick read of the progression of my sx. But everyone is different, so you might react totally different. My hgb has been dropping very slowly, last week it was at 10.
I'll not take it again because of the side effects and the withdrawl. My Dr. acknowledged the sexual side effects but said that the withdrawl symptoms were due to my depression still being presant, not quitting the drug. I'm sure he knows more about it than I do but it really doesn't matter what the reason, it was not pleasant.
but i didn't think the holistic method was *strong* enough for me. i was also withdrawing from zoloft at the time, so they probably was messing w/ me too. i started going to a conventional clinic, but the thing is that my "therapist" and i do not click at all. i can't tell her a lot stuff. maybe when i was 12 i would have benefited, but not now. she gives me a different diagnosis every time i go and see her, based on my symptoms.
Also, be sure to record your diet and eat as healthy as possible and drink lots of water. You'd be surprised how things like acid reflux, a common side-effect of anxiety, can make your anxiety even worse! Would I stop the doctor visits? If you feel they are helping you, no. But I still believe that YOU are the best cure for your anxiety, and the doctors/medication are only there to give you a little push in the right direction.
I know, though, that I will miss the comforting feeling which starts to happen after taking 4 tablets on the way to work. I know I'll miss that and it's that which worries me more than the physical side effects of stopping. I've stopped before so I know the night time jitters are by far the worst thing to cope with and I'm hoping that a herbal sleep remedy will help. Without anything it feels like ants are crawling in your joints. I feel for everyone who has posted and wish you all the best.
decided to put me on lexapro. it was very bad, i could not stand the side effects. today i dont know if the side effects was from lexapro or from the clonazepam that he took me off cold turkey. i was only able to take the lexapro for two weeks, when i stop taking it i felt fine and i know dont take anything. couple of weeks ago i felt anxious and panic again, it does not happen all the time but it does occur. i visited my dr. yesterday and he said to take clonazepam on needed bassis only.
I had to do this for about a week or two before my side effects were less effecting. (Vertigo, Headaches, shakiness, irritability) Nothing feels worse than to cry for absolutely NO reason at all. I must say, I was on the highest dosage available for 4 strait years, and I quit cold turkey. It was hard and at times I thought "If i only call the number to the pharmacy, I could get them refilled and pop a few to feel better".....sickening.
IT'S THE PITS TO LIVE WITH THESE STINKING ARRYTHMIAS, AND I TAKE THE MEDICINE, HAVE TO DEAL WITH SOME OF THE SIDE EFFECTS, BUT I WOULDN'T CARE IF THE MEDICINE AT LEAST KEEP THE ARRYTHMIAS MOSTLY AWAY. I KNOW IT NOT A CURE, I JUST WISH IT WOULD HELP A LITTLE MORE.
), pain in different parts of the body that comes and goes, palpitations, heartbeat like thumping in my palms that makes my fingers twitch off and on, dry eye syndrome, nose bleeds a few times from the right nostril, shaking inside my body when I'm sleeping or when I just wake up. The body shaking has been getting progressively worse, so bad that I feel my entire body moving - this happens more than I first lay down in bed, if I'm woken up suddenly.
I have been prescribed both Zoloft and Prozac with Klonopin for the symptoms of anxiety and depression, but I still seem to pick at me head. The kicker is that I also do this in my sleep. I will literally wake up with blood under my nails. What treatment options are there other than medication? Should I tell my primary care physician or should I talk to a psychiatrist? What are some of the causes of this, could it be OCD?
I didn't think you were rambling out of nonsense at all..................it all makes perfect sense to me. As a person who has been in pshych treatment for 15 years, I get where you are coming from 100%. Do you know how many horrible side effects I have endured over the years while my dr "tries" meds on me to try and fix my crippling anxiety?????
Yes, MS can show up with sudden weakness just on one side - almost exactly like a stroke. I have weakness on my right side also. It started one morning when I suddenly couldn't lift my foot to put it on my left knee to put my sock on. That was about three years ago. Last fall I began having weakness in my right arm. My leg also feels heavy, like I have to drag it forward to walk. The dizziness is also extremely common in MS, though it happens for other reasons, too.
I get little pimple bumps on my back side I can't sleep I feel like little bugs a crawling all over in ears, nose arms, but mostly my bottom. VERY FRUSTRATING. I literally will jump out of my chair. I spend most my day trying to ignore it . That's impossible. My boyfriend found that he had a staph infection. I was told I did not have a Staph infection, the doctor said it was type of pour infection that will never go away thanks a lot. I just glad I'm not the only one.
I to Get a mag. mirror sometimes a pin, always tweezers and a lamp and sit on the side of the couch and pick, I even go to the extent of plucking and picking my bikini line... to the point that there are white patch scars and the hairs grow back ingown, which hurt but also involve more picking and gooo. My face is full of scars..... I feel so shitty most of the time... I do consider myself pretty on most days the days where the make-up covers well or I havn't picked....
