I cant sleep symptoms and conditions

I am taking lithium with a 800mg dosage of sodium valporate for my bipolar.But i cant sleep most nights cause i wake up every hour to wee and my throat is so dry.so thirsty.I also have acne which from my teens i never had any.i also have terrible headaches.I seriously feel like stoping as i dont even see a differences in my condition.

SINCE MY LAST POST (AUG 7TH) THAT I MENTIONED THAT I WOULD BE TAKING OUT THE MIRENA WILL I HAD IT TAKEN OUT YESTURDAY (AUG. 8TH) MORNING...CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME HOW LONG AFTER I HAVE THIS THING OUT WILL MY SYSTEM GO BACK TO NORMAL??? THE ANXIETY IS ALREADY GETTING TO ME ESPECIALLY CUZ I GET IT REALLY BAD AT NIGHTS TO THE POINT WHERE I CANT SLEEP.... HAS THAT HAPPENED TO ANYBODY??? THIS IS THE FIRST AND LAST TIME I PUT ANY ARTIFICIAL HORMONES IN MY BODY, I HAVE BEEN THROUGH "HELL" SINCE I HAD THAT MIRENA IN ME..ALL I WANT IS TO GO BACK TO MY GOOD OLD NORMAL SELF!!!

somehow since ive been taking this pill ive had the worst nightmares (like its 5:30 in the morning i cant sleep night mares) ive been a total b*tch, for no reason at all.
my face looks like crap, ive never had acne or an oily face.. i now have both

I am on 60mgs at night and have noticed a lot of shakiness and sometimes I get muscle twitches. My doc said it would also help me sleep and it has done the opposite. I'm BP so I have the racing thoughts and I have been having them at night so I cant sleep until about 3AM. I also sometimes feel feverish and weak. Im pretty sure its Geodon and if Im right it sucks!

HOW DO YOU KNOW IF THE PROBLEMS YOUR HAVING ARE A DIRECT RESULT OF TAKING LEVAQUIN.IS THERE A BLOOD TEST THAT CAN REVEAL THE LEVAQUIN IN YOUR SYSTEM EVEN AFTER IT HAS BEEN WEEKS AND MAYBE EVEN MONTHS AFTER FINISHING THE DRUG.MY DR. PRESCRIBED IT FOR A UTI INFECTION AND JUST GAVE ME FREE SAMPLES OF IT FROM HIS OFFICE WITH NO SYMTOMS OR SIDE EFFECTS PAPER WITH IT .I FEEL LIKE MY CHEST IS GOING TOO EXPLODE AND I CANT SLEEP .I ALSO HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE AND TAKE LOTREL 5/10 .CAN THIS BE HARMFUL FOR ME

I started taking Prilosec OTC a month ago to treat GERD...just over a month ago. Very shortly after starting the medication, I noticed I was getting dull headaches and tension in my head that lasted throughout the day...not a migraine, but enough to be annoying. I also noticed as time went on that I have become very nervous/anxious, my heart rate jumps up easily, and now I am having blood pressure spikes that I never had before. I have seen that Omeprazole (similar drug) has caused similar problems in others, and even my doctor told me that the same class of drugs can cause similar problems. My GP is very suspicious, because all of this began after I took the drug. Even though I had slightly elevated Dr's office BP, it was never at current levels. And I cant sleep at night nearly as well, and that DEFINITELY started just after taking the meds. Anyone else experience this?? My Gastro Doctor is skeptical, but I think my GP DR thinks something is not right here and she suspects the medicine...

I've taken yasmin for 8 days, I stopped taking it 3 days ago and Im having the worst side effects ever! Im contantly nausea, light headed, extremely nervous, blurry vision, light sensitivity I cant even do normal everyday stuff because I constantly feel like Im going to pass out. I cant sleep at night, It feels like the room is just spinning. Feels like the symptoms are getting worst. Is this ever gona go away? or stay like this Cos I cant handle it anymore!

I have now been on prednisone for 3 weeks (3/9/07 to Present) and I weight 103 so I havent notice the weight gain yet but I do eat a lot now and I am never full. I go back to the doctor next Friday so I will find out if I have gained any weight. A major problem I am having is I cant sleep at night I have so much energy now. My face is shaping into a moonface. I take two pills a day at 20 mg (40 mg together). Also, my mood is changing I get mad really easy now.

I have been on this medicine for almost 6 days and I am only 20 years old. I have had a sinus infection for 3 weeks now and have been on antibiotics for 20 days. The Lavaquin they have had me on has caused tingling sensations in my legs and arms I am tired all the time. I play college basketball and have never felt so tired. I cant sleep at night I have anxiety and nightmares about dying and toss and turn for hours. I cant get out of a chair without feeling like I am going to pass out which is very scary. my arms feel tired and this medicine has made me feel like there is something really wrong with me instead of helping me. Do not take this medicine!

Ive been on Lisinopril for 2 months. Ive had a cough for the last 3 weeks. Started with the worse cold ive had in years. I cant sleep at night cause i cough so hard. My sides and back hurt all the time. I thought maybe i had a sinus infection, but the cough and runny nose is clear. I also have a headache all the time. I went on this med cause my insurance company wouldnt pay for my Macardis, which worked great. I think we are all victims of the insurance companys. I will be going to my Dr soon and getting off this junk.

I have been on Toprol for a month now and I don't know what to do. My hair is falling out slowly, I get nausea every day with diarhea. My appetite is gone. I get very tired and weak. I cant sleep at all. I am very irritable. I have no sex drive. My asthma is worse taking it. I get awful leg cramps. I bruise a lot easier. I have migraines every day. I have blurred vision. I just feel tense all the time

I took trimethoprim for 5 days about 2 weeks ago and i got hot flushes pins and needles and i cant sleep...i still have some of these symptoms..how lomg do they tike to go away

That the dirutic can cause permanent neurological damage thats horrible I hope not!!

Hi Sarah

Thanks

Iam going to try and wean off of it in one month I cant stand having something foreign in my body!
I dont take pills I dont even know why I took Yaz I guess because my doctor said it would be good for a ovarian cyst I had and I trusted her!!

I cant sleep either now dont know if its the Lexapro or the Yaz help its horrible!!!!

Does anyone know if it is going to be no problem to stop the Lexapro.
my doctor said she isnt treating me for anxiety but a induced anxiety so I should be able to come off easy Iam terrified of stopping and feeling this way again!

B12.......I was taking liquid B12 drops???
But than my doctor told me it was adding to the anxiety
I believe in my bloodwork B12 was tested but not positive if not I will go get it checked via bloodwork!

Had to have a mouth cyst removed today yes induced by the stress of Yaz by a ENT he said to be careful with Xanax and any antidepressants. He said that it appeared that the anxiety wasnt leaving no matter what I tried....eating drinking alot vitamins walking baths massages acupuncture. I was getting massages 3 times a week.

The anxiety wouldnt pass I still have it some today
But I wanted to heal all on my own not by another drug
So frustrating

Dejay is well she was in a bad way she was crying every day losing weight I was in the ER once a week she was in her bathroom.
Our symptoms were so severe I lost my job she couldnt take care of her family and we were crying suffering every single day with no relief it was the most horribliest thing in my life.

I just need some advice on if anyone thinks in 30 days I will be over the hump and the anxiety gone??? So i can stop the Lexapro???

Please advise

Yea, not happy at all... I have terrible stiffness in my back and neck... I cant sleep through the night.... My legs feel drained of any power and strength... I cant stop feeling dizzy... Things are not getting better, they are definately getting worse...

I didn't think i'd have any reaction to any drug until late one night, or morning i was restless and decided to look up sulfurmeth. turns out i am allergic. its 3 in the morning and my body is exhausted but i cant sleep. feels like my heart is pounding. i've been nervous & jittery all evening. and i went 8 hours without eating. oh, started itching a lil bit too. damn i wish i'd known this was gonna happen. it sucks.

i have had 2 injections....and im supposed to have a third next week.....my face is red...swollen...i feel very emotional..irritated...sad...then up and energetic....im nausous..my heart keeps racing..i cant sleep for more then a couple hours without waking up and feeling so fatigued....i cant remember whati was thinking...scattered thoughts...headache.....very drained..weak muscles and im perspiring like i have never before.....im getting the shots for back pain...it has helped the pain but the side effects are feel very toxic................i grateful for the info here as i thought it was just me..........

All medications have anticipated side-effects, so why can't we accept the positive benefits of meds provided to the public on a self-selected commercial basis !

I just started nuvaring 2 weeks ago after having my left ovary and tube removed due to endometriosis, I am only 23. I have been on 11 differtent b/c pills since the age of 15 because the hormones will "slow the proccess" of endo. I have had very bad reactions to all forms of b/c, even the patch which blistered my skin. Nausia, horrible mood swings, weight gain, severe cramps daily--every single day(due to endometriosis) but not like this! I had an immidiate discomfort upon inserting nuvaring, a yeast infection that wont go away- not to mention i am already on zoloft for depression--WONDERFUL stuff! But since nuvaring it is not working at all! And talk about headache!!! I cant sleep, not even with tylenol pm. The reactions to this nuvaring SUCK!! I would advise anyone who does not need b/c for a medical reason--please consider comdoms! They dont make you feel like yelling at everyone who looks at you or crying for no reason!

I started topamax on Friday December 30, 2005. I am on 25mg in the AM and 25mg in the PM. I have had one migraine a day, which might sound like it is not an improvement, but that is coming off a 2 week straight one. I do not seem to be having the "typical" side effects, but I CANT SLEEP!! I finally fall asleep about 3am and wake at 6am, thats it. I am kind of tired during the day, but not as much as I should be. I have ringing in my ears and chills that started with the prolonged migraine and have continued, I am not sure if it is the topamax or not. I do not notice the memory or feeling "stupid" issues". I do feel "peaceful".

I just took one because my doc said that i have a virus that is going around. I wasted my money because i am not going to take again. I would rather drink some tea or do a steam treatment to relieve congestion than deal with the side affects. I have only had one and i am very nervous, It is almost 3:30 a.m. right now and I cant sleep, that is why i am writing this, i cant sleep. I feel like getting mad at my doc or someone but that wouldnt help anything. I just hope this crap leaves my body FAST!!! Feels like poison in my body. Should have asked the doc for a homeopathic alternative. My bad.

I have been taking 80mg of Geodon for about 4 years now. Im like most of the other people, I cant sleep at night, its 5:43 am now and Im still not tired. I have the same reaction when I miss a pill, but I only sleep for an hour then wake up feeling great, but as soon as someone talks to me, I get really jumpy and cocky, and millions of thought of killing and being destructive to everything in sight rushes through my head all at once. It has even got so far that I tryed to kill my black lab for barking at a reflection in the window. I have also had days that I would just black out, and not remember anything that has happened til I wake up the next day. But I mean when Im taking the pill when Im supposed to everything is fine. It usually calms me down. I have tryed so hard to change meds or just get off of it all together, but my doctor says it is clinically impossible to get off of geodon after being on it for as long as I have been on it. Before I was taking geodon I have never had any of the problems that my doctors seem to think I had. I never wanted to hurt people, I never heard or saw anything that wasnt there. And I sure as hell shouldnt have been on this medication for Teenage Depression. My problem was my life sucked and I made the mistake one day of talking about my problems. One piece of advice. Dont talk about your problems to doctors or psychiatrists you dont know. That just leads you to a very expensive vacation to a mental institution for 6 months to be put on medication you dont need. I have had past experiences of being over medicated with Geodon, but being under medicated with geodon scares the hell out of me more.... Thank you to all doctors and geodon for fucking up my life. Im sure I'll die from murder / suicide now.

I started taking Singulair 2 days ago, and although it has REALLY improved my breathing, I cant sleep. I have so much energy, but in an anxious way. I'm wondering why they say to take it at night? Parhaps if taken during the day, I could utilize this manic energy, rather than freak out about it. Honestly, it seems all that any meds do is trade one evil for another, so I suppose it's up to us to decide which is more tolerable. I'll be sticking to my inhalers.

I am a 28 year old male. I was just pre-scribed Singulair yesterday to help with my acute spring alergies. I took the pill at 9pm. I am now up at 4am on a work night writing this. I am freaking out and almost went to the hospital until I read this site and already feelling better knowing that this medication is horrible for some and some of these side effects are expected. My throat and chest are really tight/sore (the worst possible feeling). I have a cough that is awful and hurts. I also have the chills and feel like I am running a fever. I cant sleep. I hate this medication....never again.

I have been on this drug for about 1 week and have developed heartburn which i never had, burning in my stomach and a very annoying cough. I cant sleep well since starting this med. I was already on 2 other drugs for bp and they added this one after I had a heart cath performed. I have several friends and family members on this drug also and all complain especially of the cough, my aunt complains of pain in her hips and joints along with the cough. I am requesting my doctor remove me from this drug. I will try other methods of treatment as i dont like taking drugs anyway..there are always side effects from drugs..always
