Reglan and black hole

I needed a uterine biopsy so my OB/GYN prescribed something to dilate me. He also prescribed Reglan for my stomach. I didn't know at the time that's what it was or anything about the drug. He said to take the two meds together. I took 2 doses and after taking the second dose I got a tingle that went up my spine and threw me into a full blown panic attack for 48 hours solid. I couldn't relax so I would walk in and out our sidewalk and then I'd be so exhausted I'd have to lie down which was horrible. My heart was racing and I couldn't relax any part of my body. My entire body ached. Our small dog jumped on the bed and I thought I would die from the movement. I couldn't talk without the pain and I couldn't concentrate when someone would speak to me. I kept trying to rest by going to each part of my body and talking myself into relaxing. I'd start at my toes and by the time I would get to me ankles it was full blown panic again. My husband tried to give me a gentle hug and it was SO painful. I couldn't eat or drink.
I called the doctor and they insisted it was from the dilator but I knew it was the Reglan.
That was months ago and things have not changed. I still get a tingle in the base of my neck that goes up my spine and I get the panic attack. I can't sit and watch TV because when I relax it starts. I keep telling everyone that I feel like I'm not the same person I was before I took the drug but I don't know how to describe it to anyone. You had to go through it and feel what I felt to understand it completely. I fear I'm going to feel like this the rest of my life.
I'm now seeing a therapist that is helping me work through the attacks. Hopefully that will work. They put me on Celexa to help with the attacks, but that has side effects too. I tried cutting back on them but then the attacks got worse again. My therapist is well informed and knows about the Reglan and how bad it is. He is also taking me slowly off Celexa and replacing it with something else. I've been on Wellbutrin for years and have never had any problems with that.
My family is very supportive and that helps a lot. I feel very fortunate to have them.
I read all the experiences that everyone wrote and I can see me in all of them to some extent. I feel for every one of you and hope you all can have some peace in your lives.

I was prescribed Reglan to increase my breast milk. I have no history of depression or anxiety. After a month or so having taken Reglan I got extreme anxiety and insomnia. I knew I was experiencing something that was NOT normal for me. It was a terrible experience. I had to move in with my mother so she could help me with my baby. I was diagnosed with post-pardum depression/ anxiety and put on antidepressants. Something I never would have believed would happened in my life. I am now weening myself off of them. Although my Ob/Gyn says that this experience was not due to the Reglan I was on. I am not convinced. I was taking it three times a day. I will never take Reglan again.

I started taking REGLAN for gastropoesis 5 months ago. Since I have been tested for MS due to my side effects from REGLAN. Thousands of dollars in medical bills. Symptoms included, numbness and tingling in the extremities and face, forgetfulness, muscle weakness, fatigue, depression, anxiety, insomnia, loss of fine motor skills, confusion, muscle rigidity, etc. I quit taking REGLAN last night hoping that there is no permanent damage. Anyone have any hopeful conclusions?

I was given Reglan in an IV early in my pregnancy for constant vomiting and dehydration. I was told it was the safest anti-nausea drug during pregnancy. As soon as the IV went in my arm I experienced anxiety and panic. By day three on this drug, I was in a severe panic attack with severe depression and thoughts of suicide. I have no history of mental illness. I went to the ER for help to talk with a counselor or psychiatrist. I can remember crying violently and saying that I was going to die. The ER doctor had me committed to a locked ward for the suicidal. I was kept there for 12 hours and released once the doctor at this facility was told by myself that I had no history of these feelings. She said that it was a side effect from the Reglan. This drug has caused me to still have a low grade depression. I have two kids and one on the way. I blame this drug for altering the quality of my life and my family's lives. If anyone knows a lawyer that deals with Reglan cases, let me know. I'd like to fight this. I can't believe this drug is still on the market.

I Took reglan as my docotor prescribed me.From the day the side effects are worse.I started feeling depression,anxiety,panic attacks which I used to not have anytime in my life.Now I stopped taking this it is been 10 days I am off this medicine.But I am facing still the same problems some time all this days.But My concern how many days it will take to get rid of this medicine from my system.Not even able to sleep properly.There is toxic taste inside the mouth now days.I always suggest people before taking this medicine just go and see the side effects of the medicine.
