Well i've been taking sertraline for 4 weeks and 5 days now.
I have to say I dont feel much different.
If anything I maybe feel a bit less panicky.
I've been really poorly the last week with a flu type virus.
and its brought on my dizziness again..
When i was pregnant with my son I started getting very dizzy. After going back and forth to the doctors they finally sent me for a ct scan cos' the dizziness was accompanies by headaches. the cct scan was fine. and they diagnosed migraines.
So then the doctor sent me to a physio place at hospital who said I had an inner ear disorder. and gave me exercises to do to help get my balance back on track.
But also the doctor has said it could just be a symptom of anxiety and depression. I dont feel it is this though cos' it's so real to me.
It stopped me being able to look after my son. I could hardly walk around the house let alone take him out places and play with him.
The annoying thing is that it stopped for just over a year and I finally got my confidence back and started enjoying my life again.
Started taking my tablets which took me 2 years!!
Now I have 3 kids to look after my son whos 3 in a few weeks my partners kids who are 9 and 10 and live with us full time. I cant afford to be dizzy all the time. If its an inner ear thing I can see how the virus i've had would affect it again but I just feel like nobody believes me cos its not like a cut they can see or a broken leg ive got in plaster. Its in my head and its such a horrible out of control feeling I cant stand it.
I feel anxious now which sucks .
Sorry for long post. x
