Guest guest Posted March 23, 2002 Report Share Posted March 23, 2002 Hello, My name is Emily, I live in the NYC area and I am an AP SAHM to an 18 month old daughter. I have a question/problem that I need help with and would appreciate ANY help you could give me. I am currently on a few Pharm meds for Depression and Panic Disorder. It worsens around my period. Well, I am now over 2 months late with both blood and urine tests coming back NEGATIVE for HCG. I am miserable, heavy, crampy and sick for months now, My Ob/gyn said " you're just late " so I looked into emenegogues.(sp?) I decided to insert fresh Parsley close to my cervix like a tampon, I hvae had 2 such inserts since about 10 last night. No blood yet. Has this method been known to work? I just feel nauseous and gassy!!! Also, has anyone ever heard of the Vit C method of inducing your period? 500mg every hour for 5 says (and helping it along with the parsley tampon) Will Vit C interfere with the unfortunate Anti depressants and Anti anxiety meds I am taking (effexor Buspar, Klonapin) I would rather not be on those but they seem to be the only things that HELP me somewhat so far. I would appreciate any suggestions, help or advice. I look forward to meeting all of you. -Em Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2002 Report Share Posted March 24, 2002 From my viewpoint, a post like this is simply tragic. I am really sad to see this. Based on what has been said here, getting into herbal medicine will do no good at all. There is a deeper, fundamental problem. That problem is, trusting doctors who really don't know what they're doing. Whenever a person is put on multiple antidepressant medications, there is great danger, and rarely a good outcome. In fact, one of the listed medications here was part of the Yates case down in Texas. These medications tend to do tremendous damage, a fact which has not been adequately studied yet. But NOBODY should EVER quit these cold turkey. To get off these medications takes a tremendous amount of time and attention from an honest Medical Doctor. Usually a program of steadily reduced dosages has to be done, along with a precisely monitored program of nutrition. Vitamin C won't interfere with the listed medications. But the medications may mask the good effects of the vitamin, or even make it impossible to keep it down in some cases. I am practically in tears here concerning this tragedy. I really hope this young mom can find her way out of the medical traps she has fallen into. It is so sad. I know how difficult it can be to find a doctor who can safely get someone out of a mess like this. I will be praying for her. >Hello, > >My name is Emily, I live in the NYC area and I am an AP SAHM to an 18 >month old daughter. > >I have a question/problem that I need help with and would appreciate >ANY help you could give me. > >I am currently on a few Pharm meds for Depression and Panic Disorder. >It worsens around my period. > >Well, I am now over 2 months late with both blood and urine tests >coming back NEGATIVE for HCG. > >I am miserable, heavy, crampy and sick for months now, My Ob/gyn >said " you're just late " > >so I looked into emenegogues.(sp?)
