hi ive been on mirtazipine for five month the past month been feeling dizzy bad stomach cramps and past week my hair is falling out and get stinging prickly heat feelings all over my body and my head its like i can feel the hair burning if anyone has any info would be appreciated thanks
Hi been taking 45mg for over 3 years still depressed and anxious I found it the anti depressant with least side effects at first and easily tolerated. Later (I was pretty bad when I began taking it) I noticed side effects such as psychedelic light shows in my head I substantiated this because my partner took one tab. And it had the same effect. We have to face these things are powerful drugs and the 'prescribers' have no idea what we suffer because of them I would like to survive without them but that's what it would be survival!.
Good luck.
hi manofstel. (like the name).......re hair falling out etc. with these symptoms, it's important to have your thyroid & b12 levels checked.
hi caitlin thanks for commenting why do you think that do you think i should start fish oil supplements and b vitamin tabs ?
hi manofsteel. EFA & B complex vits. are always a good addition to a well balanced diet.
i say to have ur thyroid & B 12 levels checked as the symptoms u describe can be caused by these 2 conditions amongst, of course, a host of other conditions. however, these 2 are easily eliminated by blood tests & history taking. sadly if left undiagnosed/untreated, they can wreack havoc with one's health. they are both auto imune conditions and often co exist. do have a look @ the Pernicous Anaemia Society website. they have a very accessible symptom check list that you can check against your own symptom picture. also, both conditions are knowledgeably discussed on the HealthUnlocked discussion forum/s.
