feeling strange whats up?????
« on: May 27, 2008, 03:38:26 pm »
Could use some advice and feedback from those that have a longer experience on meds. I have called my doctor by the way. But in the meantime............ I have had this foggy feeling around me, lack of energy and shortness of breath in the past 2 days. Took a 3 hour nap yesterday, not like me. I also have not been sleeping at night. I take Lunesta as well as Koletra and combivar for 3 years now.Lunesta not working. Not had this sensation and it is freaking me out! I feel lifeless and empty, no power at all.
I am way to active of a person and don't stop. This is very different for me and some what frightened. Mind is a bit in a fog too.
Anyone else out there had these effects like this and how long do they stay. I also take blood pressure meds and checked my pressure this AM but that was fine.
Let me know some feed back?
Thanks
Jeff

Get a check for anaemia (the AZT in Combivir can cause this)

Fatigue is mysterious though. And kaletra can cause this too. The shortness of breath is kinda sugestive of anaemia but could have many other causes too.

Just to circle back around ....went to the doctor and gave me a good once over and decided it was depression and put me on another pill. Zoloft. This kind of came from left field but went with the flow. Also going for a chest x ray.
Let's see what happens.
