I was prescribed medication for pain and panic disorder daily for over 7 years. I trusted the doctors to help. After a while I was give new medications to try. I was given a cocktail I’ll never forget. While driving home I thought I had a stroke which went into a spiral. It felt like a brain injury I couldn’t explain. All my symptoms snowballed, and anxiety I couldn’t explain, pain, tremor, vision issue, brain zaps, severe body pains, a headache that nearly ever goes away. I could go on with the symptoms.
I AM EXTREMELY AFRAID to take even a Tylenol since now I’m sensitive to all toxins. My blood brain barrier is fried. Scared to get a surgery, even use a simple supplement as my nervous system is wrecked forever. It’s been over 10 years since I took any medications. I throw them away when I’m prescribed anything. It’s like living in hell, and I’m all alone trapped inside a body which looks healthy to others. I don’t wish this on anyone. I hope and pray more knowledge is known. I wish a doctor would just listen to me when I tell them I’m damaged, and I will surely get worse the next time I’m medicated.
