I take Elavil 60mgs at bedtime for migraines, increased appetite and to gain weight back from bad onc. I had. I have severe anxiety as every one on here knows and take 3-4mgs of xanax a day plus they added Buspar to the mix but I went to see my psychriatrist today and she wants to put me on Celexa during the day but it has the QT warning on it for your heart and I have a history of that but new onc. has it corrected now by having me on lower dose of Elavil. I told the psychiratrist this but she gave it to me any way and said it could make me jittery for awhile....now I have bad anxiety, why the hell would she give me something to make me more anxious? All the buspar does is make me sleepy and the xanax is not working as well either. When I checked the drugs.com site Celexa interacts with almost everything I am on. My onc. is not in the office today but nurse said he will call me tomorrow and not to start the celexa until I talk to him. My bone marrow biospy showed no bad chromosomes so I am in total complete remission my onc. says and I don't want more drugs...I want to try to get less. I have tried to taper off the xanax but can't do it....had 2 bad anxiety attacks...husband found me out cold on bathroom floor and had to go by ambulance the 1st time. Anyone know anything about this Celexa? I am very sensitve to side effects also. I feel like I am losing my mind and all the holiday stress of shopping and getting things ready....can't go like I use to and I hate this CML for doing this to me!!!!!
