Hi

Im in bed feeling awful...

I am very sensitive to medication and i tried the citalopram a few years ago starting on 10mg.

After the 3/4 day i took a bad reaction

The GP asked me to try again as they are a good drug so i thought i would start real small on 5mg.

Im on my 4th day of 5mg and i awoke in the night with panic attacks & migrains

Im reacting badly again BUT on 5mg

I have what i can only describe as a burning pain shooting through my body which brings on a panic attack, loose bowls & hightens the migrain.

Its really frightening and last time ended up in A&E but im trying not to panic and see these through as there coming on and off every 10/15mins

My family have said to keep on them and persavere but with sufferin anxiety its using up all my energy and i dont feel i can.

I have a fear of meds because i am so sensitive

Has anyone else had ths reaction?...
