I’ve been on 10mg for a year, but recently increased to 20mg due to a number of stressful events in life. I did titrate up with 15mg for a week, but since starting the 20mg I feel very anxious and having some side effects like nausea and tiredness. Is this fairly normal for changing the dose?
I’ve suffered with emet for as long as I can remember, and like many people can’t burp and haven’t thrown up for many years.
However last week while I was away with my boyfriend I caught some sort of bug, I had the worst stomach and I didn’t throw up but I did dry heave. The made it through the whole ordeal, a little shaken but I made it through and survived!
However since then, I have been riddled with such intense anxiety. My stomach still isn’t back to normal which means I’m still experiencing a loss of appetite and some nausea. I’ve been to the doctors about this and am getting checked out.
However I just feel so hopeless and like all my progress has been for nothing. I guess I’m just looking for some reassurance that it can take a while to get back to normal after an illness and that I won’t feel this way forever ☹️
