My doctor gave em all to me.

Ultram about 100MG 4 times a day
Zoloft 100MG once a day
Dont know the dosage of the rest

Sometimes I miss doses. I feel like I am going insane. Sometimes heat intolerant and sweaty.

Tired all the time and dont give a damn most of the time.

Been on Zoloft for years.

First, how dangerous is the combo? Do I have seroronin syndrome?

What would Oxycodone here and there do to the mix? I am thinking of asking my doc for some. My neckpain is terrible and it feels like my head wont stay up on my neck.

Also what about driving with this combo? minus the oxy

Well, I was on the computer one night, a week ago, for 4 consecutive hours, and after I got off, My right arm, wrist and fingers were hurting. A couple nights after, while laying in bed, my pointer finger was throbing pain..and now sometimes anywhere in my arm/wrist hurts will hurt whenever. It feels as my arm is weak. The pain will go anywhere from a little above my elbow, to my wrist..
I don't think it is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, since it occured in one day, and also my fingers don't tingle..

Will this go away??

I was exercising yesterday and woke up today with a pulled muscle in my lower back/butt area. It really hurts when I walk and I was wondering what the best way to help the pain would be.

I've had Fibromyalgia for 17 years now. I've been off and on Medicine for it. I was just wondering if anyone who has it , had any other methods of pain relief besides medication.

Thanks!

I slipped on the stairs while carrying a small mattress and banged my wrist extremely hard. The pain was really intense and I sat on the couch. Next thing I know I am waking from a semi-conscious state and realized I was shaking. My boyfriend observed that I had been convulsing for a few seconds and did not respond to him calling my name. Now I seem fine, but I was wondering what happened or if I should see a doctor? Another factor to consider is that we had both been cleaning with a variety of chemicals in the room I was in and I am not sure of what the air quality was - though we did have two open doors. I am not sure if that has anything to do with what happened but I wanted to give all the information. I was wondering if it was an anoxic seizure? I have never experienced it before, but I have passed out before or blacked out from severe pain (once from banging my shins on exercise equipment, once getting 3 shots in a row, and once from breaking my finger). What happened?

In other words it is two tier by stealth. The NHS is a "patch them up and send them home" plaster service where only the cheap treatment is given and minor ? ailments like hip replacements, varicose veins, popeye thryroid, rheumatism, ingrowing toenails, dental crowns, etc are not treatable on cost grounds. You have to go private or wait until it gets more serious and a hosiptal bed is vacant.

Over the summer he took a chance jumping dirt hills with a bicycle and broke his collar bone.
Also before his collar bone was healed he shattered his wrist riding a moped without a helmet that required major surgery.

Health insurance only covers so much and is it fair to expect him to cover some of the cost?

I noticed on the bill that I received from my sons Dr. that she charges a fee for injecting the shot ALONG with the fee for the immunization itself. The fee for poking him with the needle is $30.00 for one kind of immunization injection and $20.00 each for the other 2 injections. These injections were normal immunizations for his 15 month check-up. Is this fee a normal fee or am I getting ripped off? The doctor doesn't even give the dang shot, the nurse does!!
