low energy what is wrong?

Question

I have had blood work done, chest x-ray, upper g.i. series done, e.k.g. and everything is negative but I feel dizzy at times of the day, doctor says its depression so he gave zoloft and ativan, but how could I take something thats gonna give side effcts? How is that suppose to make you feel better?

Answer 1

Not everyone has side effects from those medications. Perhaps you should try them before you decide. Depression should be taken seriously and medication can make all the difference in the world. If you do have side effects that you don't think you can live with, there are lots of other medications out there to try that could also help. Unfortunately sometimes it takes several attempts before you find the one that works for you in depression. It should not be ignored though as it will only get worse if not treated. Diet, exercise, regular sleep, and reducing stress can also help a great deal.

Answer 2

You should go back to primary doctor and be persitant about getting checked more. Perhaps be cardiologist and neurologist.

Be carfule on those medications-Ativan is very addictive and not for dizziness and Zoloft is for depression.

Be persistant to get evaluated correctly- Low energy can be caused my numoruos things.

You know your body-Be carful but persistant
