Alright so some of you probably won't care about all this but feel it might be interesting to share with the community. Please note this is serious and trolling will result in your post being reported. No bullshit!

In May I wen through a pretty rough stage for a few months with ongoing Anxiety and Depression issues. My doctor was really concerned about my health and the way it was presenting to him from my previous visit so as they do they put you on meds. I was on these meds for about 8 months before I decided by myself to stop taking them and since then I've felt better in that sense. Most recently I have had quite a few different issues such as due to my local emergency room being idiots I ended up with my blood becoming really badly infected which was causing me to pass out randomly and be sick. On more than one occasion my girlfriend had to actually tilt me because I'd passed out and was being sick at the same time which I could have died from. Eventually they were able to sort that issue out. I then manged to get Glandular Fever and they had me on so much medication that my blood tests were all mucked up and weren't reporting correctly.

So then I get a letter in recently (December 20th) from two different doctors reviewing my case and it seems they want more tests because the last ones indicated a lot of issues. The worrying part is the doctors are unaware I stopped taking the medication (all of it) before I went for the tests they want redone making them probably the most accurate tests. Here is what the letter said;

Quote:Der Mr NAME

Further to your recent blood tests, please could you make an appointment with the treatment room to have the following bloods repeated as we have encountered some results we believe to be inaccurate:
Liver Function
Full Blood Count
CRP

We require these test results to ensure that we have the most accurate information as you will have been off medication for approx 5 days.

Here is the thing. I've been off the medication for like 2/3 weeks and had tests carried out. Now I need to go for these tests tomorrow which I am worried about now as liver functionality seems to be an issue in my family.

Yeah it's a brickwall. Only way to sort it out through is to do it yourself. As for the blood tests I have a really bad feeling about them.

Don't ever use anti-depressants, they make it a lot more worse.

What Faded said. Antidepressants only harm you In the end

Usuay Doctors don't know how much of the drug is in each bottle, so one pill in one bottle could have the same dosage as 3 pills in one bottle. Use the stronger bottle first, get a refill, and feel like one pill isn't working anymore. It makes the person using them EXTREMELY unstable.

I've lost great friends due to them freaking out at me for no reason... Never go on them. For your own good.

I agree all they do is make you feel happier and as if everything is okay but literally your life is a wreck but in that moment you feel good. That's why I came off them.
Had my bloods taken need to wait like 5 days for the results now.

Sounds like you're in a hunch yourself.
Hopefully the tests show good results and nothing bad.
