> I have been on FXR for about three months now. About three or four weeks ago I thought I was having another meltdown. I needed releif I needed something that would stop the slide into the pits again. I called my pdoc for help. She told me to slowly get off the FXR and start the Prozac again. I really didn't want to get back on Prozac so I held out with the FXR. Today I'm glad I did. I'm feeling pretty good and am not having any side effects.I'm on Effexor XR 300mg and have relief from depression and anxiety 28 days out of 30 but still have obsessive thoughts about my health about 29 days out of 30! Would a higher dose work to take those away. When I was on Prozac, the obsessive thoughts were nonexistent but I stopped because I was too tired.
Thanks,
