Hello, just an update after my check in with my GP today.
I have stopped the propranolol and am doing ok without it. I am stabilising on the 5mg E-Cit and the side effects are almost gone. I am sleeping better most nights and my hot flushes are less bothersome. He says I can stay on it long term and agreed to me staying on the brand I have got used to. He also told me that E-Cit can cause indigestion which I have noticed from time to time, so that means I am no longer obsessing about stomach ulcers
. I am glad I stuck with it. I told him it is fast becoming my new best friend.
I realise there could be blips but hopefully I won't be phoning him up squawking that it is all going wrong. I like how I feel at the moment.
Please take heart if you are struggling with AD treatment. It is 6 months since I was first prescribed them and I have been very up and down and all over the place. Thanks to support from members here and my GP, and finding a therapist I can work with, things are looking up, there is light showing at the end of the tunnel and I will persevere until I reach the light and come out of the tunnel.
My very best wishes to everyone.
Jane
