It sounds more like the Sonata is causing this, unless this is something you've been taking for awhile, as these are common side effects of it. I doubt the B complex is causing the problem, but I wonder, when are taking it and when are you taking Sam-e?
Mostly happy and energetic enough to ride a bicycle and exercise regularly. But now the depression is longer and worse. I tried Cymbalta and too many side effects. I went off and felt better then certain triggers like toxic people bring me down. A change in routine sends me Manic. A few days ago I had to take 4 benadryl to come down off of it and stop it. So toxic people are absolutely not allowed in my life. I am seeing my Phychiatrist tomorrow to talk about what we can do.
My last refill for percocet was 10/19 and 12/09 for ambien and that was my plastic surgeon. My surgeon refused to give me anything else. He told me to find a PCP and I did 12/17 but this FNP isn't addressing my pain/insomnia effectively. On 12/17/10 she wrote me a script for indocin and benadryl. This didn't work so on 12/23/10 she wrote a questionable or I'm not sure who wrote it for sonata, percocet, and dicflonac.
They have hired me as his arms and driver. Luckily, he only works for 1-3 hrs a day for decent wages.
Money is, but isn't a factor. Just when you figure an additional $300/mo to add him to the $320/mo I already pay for my ins, on top of the $58/mo for dental ins, and $1000/yr that I put into a HSA, we both thought about it and declined it.
Sleep medications to induce sleep are helpful for short term insomnia. For long term use they are best avoided, and besides you may develop tolerance to the medication. So, try weaning away from them and slowly try to adopt good sleep hygiene measures to promote sleep. Also, being overweight can worsen the osteoarthritis, so to begin with try light exercises like walking and then gradually build up under the guidance of a physiotherapist.
I agree about talking to the doc. You might consider melatonin, though. It's OTC, safe, and works well for some people. I've been using that off-and-on throughout treatment. Go with the lowest OTC dose, though. It's a natural compound and if the body gets too much it just ignores the signal.
Also, talk to your doc about Ambien (lasts roughly 8 hours) vs. Sonata (lasts about 2 hours).
Hello,
Almost 2 months ago I got a lot of chigger bites - mostly on the pubes area int the frontal part of my genitals, under the hair, but also some on my stomach and along my bra line. Anyway, my doctor diagnosed that yes they were a whole lotta chigger bites and game me antibiotic ointment to put on them to prevent infection (since I was scratching them terribly). She also had me put scabies medicine on it "just in case" since she was not too familiar with chiggers.
How are you taking that many at a time and still alive broski? You took 30 of the ambien 10 mg in three days? What's your dosing routine? Do you take them during the day or just at night? Withdrawal from Ambien can be life threatening just like benzos. Your best bet would be to see your doctor and be honest with what is going on here and see about seeking some help with this mess you're in. I take one 10 mg Zolpidem a night and cannot fathom taking more than that.
Oh, boy............this is one of the reasons I harp on 'get the results of all of your medical tests and read them. Don't just sit and listen to a doc say that there's nothing wrong.'
I'm sorry to hear what happened. But now you need to take those records to another - decent - doc and find out how to proceed. Esophagitis is generally caused by acid reflux problems. So I'm wondering if the 'gullet infection' could mean that you have H. pylori.
Snow, Freezing temp.s, Wind, for this past week and expected for the next few days. I did have the idea of building a stand for my mountain bike so I can ride it indoors like an exorcise bike, but I'm not allowed to make such noise. :-(
I asked the very same question last year, with the exception of the medication, I'm taking carvedilol which is an Alpha "and" Beta blocker.
Some people may not have the capablity required for the muscular exertion of rowing, the treadmill might be a better start for beginners and people that lack upper body strength. Almost everyone has some abiltiy to walk....I never got to the running phase of the test. After walking 7 minutes the incline and the pace (wasn't very fast as I remember) of walking required, the test was terminated due to abnormal ekg. To complete the test takes about 15 minutes.

Here is one article I found for you regarding restless legs and magnesium:
http://www.mothernature.com/Library/Bookshelf/Books/23/126.cfm
Supplemental magnesium is helpful for migraine.
Omega-3's in fish oil supplements are helpful for migraine.
Here are two references about that:

I am depressed over this as well as postpartum issues and have just been put on Celexa for anxiety and depression as well as Sonata for sleep by a recommended psychiatrist. The Sonata is too short-acthing though. I called the doc on call but he does not want to prescribe anything stronger until tomorrow, if adding melatonin and/or benadryl does not help.
I am currently wearing a holter monitor and have also worn en event monitor recently.
Have you tried an exercise ball? I know there's many exercises that you can do on those for legs and thighs. Or maybe a bicycle?
