sorry to be troublesome, I mentioned that my doctor switched my
medications this morning, this also included a change in the time I take
it, I was taking my antidepressant at dinner time, but this one was to
be taken in the morning, so she said take it when I get home, with food,
which I did, currently it's still before the time I would have taken the
other one, so I know it's not withdrawal from that, but a problem with
the new one, I was warned about the nausea, but along with that I'm
sweating, shaking etc. I felt like I had a fever, but when I took my
temp it was normal, but checked my heart rate and it's through the roof,
120-150, it was in the 70s when I was at my primary care doctor
yesterday. Called the psych doctor's office, but she's gone for the day,
not sure if this is ok to wait until tomorrow, or not, so am calling
the nurse line we have with our insurance.

Hi Anne,
I'm glad you are calling the nurse line. If that doesn't work for some
reason, you could call your local ER and ask a nurse there.
I don't know if the high heart rate is dangerous in the short term or
not, but having had tachycardia myself (due to work-related stress), I
know it's really not comfortable.
Keeping you in my thoughts Anne.
Best regards,
Michelle in Nevada

Might be a reaction to the prescription. If you can't get help from the
nurse; phone your pharmacist. Those are very nice and helpful folks; they
know and have quick access to their drugs, side-effects and what-all. Polly

Good move. Best to be on the safe side. Some of these drugs do have a
raised heartbeat as a side effect, but they usually wear off after a
short while. Keep us informed how you get on, and meanwhile the prayers
continue.

Even if the dr is out of the office, his or her answering service should be
able to get ahold of him/her. Reactions to medicine are nothing to mess
around with, so I'd be insisting that I talk to Dr.
