last night freaked me out. i was woken up and couldn't fall back asleep because everytime i closed my eyes i was seeing images. i would jump out of bed and relax, try and fall back asleep and i did.

and today jeez....i was in my arabic professor's office getting some help with some different things and i couldn't even think straight. it felt like something was blocking my mind from thinking. that and my ears started ringing and i was getting this nasty copper taste in my mouth.

i walked out of that building all disoriented, couldn't collect my thoughts until i was able to calm down. it almost felt like i was about to have a seizure

what to do? what to do?

You are stressed about the side effects so its making it worse, talk to the doc and see what they have to say.

read the extra line i put in.

dude, I'm not on anything and i see images when I close my eyes too. it's weird.

LT

zack! did you have similar effects when you first started your treatment?

axemansean

Its those damn tattoos you got under your eyes.

If you are that concerned about it, stop taking it until you can see the Doc. I doubt if you are about to have a seizure, but the other symptoms you describe are on the list of adverse effects. You drinking any booze, taking it late in the day or taking any other meds?

LT

i quit drinking, i take it 10am everyday, on no other meds.

And this started when you went from 150 mg to 300 mg as I recall, perhaps you just need to back off to 150 mg.

That and I'd just start talking. Rambling on about things. I was so happy about everything I just wanted to talk and share the joy of everything with anybody who'd listen. I'd talk to a salt shaker while washing the dishes... it would talk back to me, we'd start arguing about the kind of soap I was using... you think that's weird... I'd loose the fight AND feel good about it. :loco: x2542345

oh yea... I'll just cut off my eyelids :chuckles:
