All aboard the side-effect express - woo woo!
At the moment I feel great. This is actually not a good thing, because I slept less than 2 hours last night. I'm hyped up like a triple espresso and vaguely itchy, and when I did sleep I had some pretty nasty nightmares.
As my neurotransmitters are a bit wonky under the best of circumstances (I'm on a low-dose SSRI for depression manifesting as anxiety and sleep disturbances), this could very rapidly become a very not-good thing indeed.
So I have a fax in to the other doc (the one I saw yesterday isn't in till after 2) listing my symptoms and requesting somethign with a shorter list of CNS side effects. Hopefully she can call it in to the pharmacy and I can pick it up when I leave here around 1. Cuz I suspect that when this stuff starts to clear out of my system, I'm going to crash and burn pretty hard.
Meh. Modern medicine.
