Hey, so I have been taking fluoxetine since December with having lack of sleep and also loss of appetite. I recently went back to the doctors before going back to work about the problems I have but all he did was up my dosage from 20mg a day to 40mg.
I have really started work and the 40mg has made me have a severe loss of appetite. I can't even eat a full creme egg without feeling full. Earlier, I had 3 chicken strips and then threw up from them. I work alot on the floor where I work and when I get long shifts like today (11:15-7:45pm), it really takes you roll on you. I feel hungry so I try and eat but can't or have to force myself to eat. I come home even from short shifts exhausted but can't even sleep to rest.
Obviously. I am running pretty much on nothing and only thing that seems to be ok is just drinking Coca Cola but I can't live off that. I have lost 20lbs so far while being on these from 9st 6lbs to now 8st. I am glad I have lost this much weight because I now look great but I am starting to get really concerned about my health.
I am going to go back to the doctors on Monday and demand them that they change my medication or at least give me something to help me sleep as well. But I was wondering if anyone else had severe problems while on fluoxetine? Did they improve in time or always just remained there?
