day 535 - lexapro day 3

Interestingly enough, 3 days into my Lexapro therapy at half a dose and I already notice a change in my pain.

It's less of the "raw nerve" feeling and more of the old familiar achy ouchy stuff.

It's ironic when the pain you've lived with is comforting because it means you're getting back to normal.

The only noticeable side effect is horrid dry mouth, but I can live with that. Breath mints, gum, water...I can find things to moisten my mouth.

And I'm a bit tired, and dizzy if I get up too fast.

Nothing major. Just slow down.

I can live with that as long as I can move without feeling like someone's trying to rip my scalp off.

Well, I'll take that as a positive. Glad it was a change for the better, at least.

I'm glad you're able to notice the improvement. And slow isn't always that bad!
