I had a complete hysterectomy and have been on Premarin for the last 3-4 years, but have skipped months and weeks at a time. I have recently within the last year or so, been on Wellbutrin XL. I have been having horrible memory problems like what you mentioned lately. I heard somewhere that if you are going through menopause, and you don't have enough estrogen for the first 3-4 years of the menopause, it can cause severe memory problems, and cause early onset alzheimers. I didn't want to get too personal, but I did want to let you know, this could have something to do with it.
I experienced the same side effects when my pharmacy switched pills I was taking to 300mg from 150mg. Because they did not tell me this and I did not think to read the label on the bottle, I ended up taking 900mg a day! Yikes! People thought I was on drugs or drunk because I couldn't walk straight from the dizziness and my words were coming out in weird jumbles. Hopefully by now you have had the dosages on your medication lowered. It sounds like the dosage was too high for you.
Things are much, much better now. My doc didn't cut my Prozac in half, the stupid pharmacy did! I am going to double check everything now when I get my prescriptions filled! I am back up to 80 mgs of Prozac, and just 150 mg of Wellbutrin, and I have seemed to find a good balance. I am my old self again. Enjoying my family, my sweet little dog, and my job. I do not trust the pharmacy anymore. This is not the first time they screwed something up. (It's a wal-mart pharmacy) Anyway, I am doing much better!!!!
I am so happy for you and send my most heartfelt good wishes! When I first read your post it sounded a lot like me going through menopause...with the exception of a couple of symptoms!!! Wellbutrin has served me well for this, but everyone is different. I am glad to hear you are back in the saddle!!
