Guest guest Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 Hi Luther, I haven't treated your situation *exactly* but whether your condition is drug induced or not, doesn't matter to me. I treat the pattern as it presents. I've treated patterns that have your symptoms before. May I ask what herbs your acupuncturist put you on?

Next, these " tablets " are these oblongy dark green compressed herbs tablets? Do you see fibers in the tablets? If not, what size are these things? Peppercorns? BBs? Capsules? M & Ms? If these are the compressed herb type tablets, and you're taking three of them twice a day, that's an okay dosage, but perhaps a little small. You can probably take more. We often don't take enough of these herbs. How much do you weigh? How tall are you? How old are you? -- , DAOM Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 These are the compressed herb tablets. I can see fibers in them. I'm 32, 6'0 " tall, 215lbs. I exercise 3-4 times a week, so I'm in pretty good shape.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 hello Luther I would like you to detail your case more or if you can write us a synopsis which would give us a hint where to go and how to make your Chinese Dx and I believe we all can help you then. regards Dr R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 Hi Luther, That's an SSRI drug and some have experienced health problems taking these. You might want to try the SSRI Research group on for more information there on this. hope that helps, john d lightsoutluther wrote: > > Hi, just a quick introduction - > > I took the antidepressant Celexa from Feb 2001 to Feb 2004 for > depression/anxiety.
