Hey Guys!
Been away for a while taking care of my father (had a single lung transplant 7 years ago then last year he had a double lung transplant, back surgery 2rods 4 pins, dialysis edema congestive heart failure) and his doctors don't give a shit so I have to be a DR a nurse a aide take care of all his finances clean out laundry so I have no life. When I go places I am so so anxious it feels like my heart is going to jump out of my chest and mychest is going to rip in half....I am seeing a new DR. he is really cool will let me have whatever I want to an extent, so I told him about this anxiety and told him I didn't want benzo's he put me in zoloft. I have been on it 50mg a day for over 2 months now and I don't feel any different except maybe a little more grumpy and angry at things. My anxiety is so bad my face gets red and I start sweating, I can't sit still and relax, and at night so many crazy thoughts are going through my head that I can't sleep it takes me hours and hours and hours to get to sleep. I am also missing my l2-l4 the disintegrated from an infection I had in my spine and they had to do 4 surgeries to remove the infection i was on IV antibiotics for 24 weeks everyday .....they want to put rods and pins in but I have been putting it off because my dad needs me for everything, so with the anxiety my muscles in my back and chest get REALLY tight and that makes my back hurt so bad....I just want something that will help, there are things I avoid doing because I don't want to have to be in a social situation its bad....so does anyone know of any meds I could ask my Doctor about? please and thank you so much love you @burnout
