You gotta stop reading the medical journals and if you’re gonna be online stick to the forums cause at least there are more positive than negitive experiences. Reading the worse possible scenario isn’t gonna make you feel any better and you don’t know what other meds the people in them were on, what other medical conditions they have and what kind of person they are. I read an article before I had surgery about a girl who was on Zoloft and her meds reacted with the anesthetic during her surgery and she couldn’t come out from being under, was on breathing support for 2 days before finally waking up. I was really worried before my surgery after reading that and read on the forums that alot of people, around 20% of people that have surgery are on an SSRI. I took it in the morning like the doc told me, told the docs before that I took it and everything was fine, built up worry for nothing. Stop reading so much and trust your docs, it will save you alot of stress and headache.
