Hi,

This is the craziest thing. I’ve been dealing with a pit feeling in my stomach consistently since mid March. But since I began taking mirtazapine about 18 days ago, it doesn’t come unless I’m really stressed about a situation. So now I’m upset because my 7.5 mirtazapine ISNT the miracle drug I thought it was.

More context is I had a very stressful and traumatic childhood, somehow I ended up getting through all that and never had anxiety until about 2 1/2 months ago. (Im 33 now)A stressful situation came up and all of a sudden I woke up shaking & with a pit. I haven’t had the shakes in over a month. I tried Buspar back in March and it actually made things worse.

Back in Nov I took an expired Zoloft by mistake and I had acute gastritis for 2 weeks. March 4th, I ate 2 cupcakes, 2 donuts, a baconator, then got to the coke, and felt like throwing up after I drank a few sips. Then the pit began. I took a PPI, I’m eating fine, don’t have any burning pain; i actually ate a Big Mac meal the last 2 days, and ate buffalo wings last night, and a soda this morning so I doubt it’s a stomach issue.

That being said, I’m at my wits end. Anyone similar who found a miracle drug? Should I just wait out the mirtazapine? I HAVE only been taking it 18 days..

Thanks

Hi everyone, let me explain the timeline & my symptoms here.

On 11/6, I had a really stressful day at work, and so I took an expired Zoloft (I didn’t realize it was expired) and that sent me in a tailspin of acute gastritis & I felt awful. I went to the doctor & they prescribed me Protonix, took that for 2 weeks, recovered, and that was it.

On 3/4, I ate 2 donuts, 2 cupcakes, and then went home and got a baconator meal with a coke. Finished the baconator meal, got to the coke, took 3 sips, and what do you know, I threw up, and then mostly felt better but then had a stomach swirl for a few weeks. Got prescribed Buspar from Brightside and that helped for a little bit and then the swirls came back.

3/23 came, I had a very stressful situation at work, went home, took 2 hydroxixine 25s & my nightly buspar and I woke up the next morning with the swirl way worse and shaking uncontrollably. I recovered a bit but the swirl never really went away.

4/6. I upped my dose of Buspar with my prescriber to 15mg in hopes it was an anxiety issue. Nope, I got way worse, swirl got way worse, I woke up 4/7 shaking uncontrollably again with the swirl.

4/9 I quit Buspar cold turkey. It began where I’d begin to feel better around 8 pm each night, then it went to 5, then it went to 3, and now I wake up with heavy morning swirls and then have no pain but I’m paranoid all day that I’m sick.

Yesterday I ate a whopper meal with a coke to “teach my vagus nerve a lesson). I felt no pain at all and I was fine.

My symptoms: I have zero appetite and essentially have to force myself to eat. I wake up with swirls and terrible anxiety which subsides once I get my day going and I’m fine typically until the next morning, albeit with zero appetite. My stomach growls a ton, I have zero desire to do anything, and when I poop it’s like loud farty poops that are typically half wet half solid.

I’ve felt this way since about 3/23 and I’m sick of being sick at this point. Looking at my symptoms, is it likely I have FD?

I am beginning 100 mg of magnesium glycenate before bed tonight so hope that helps in the morning.
