Dear Doctor,
I am male 40 and suffering with GAD/breathlessness/Panic anxiety/Low mood (not depression)/ agoraphobia/loss of libido. Took imipramine 50mg and stelazine 2mg for last 6 years and also took amitriptyline 50mg for months but they are no more effective now. Currently I am taking escitalopram 15mg (tried 20mg also) but with esci only 60% normal. One doc told add bupropion 75 mg to esci or pregabalin 75 thrice to esci or stop all these and start desvenlafaxine. Two days onwards onwards I am taking Pristiq 50mg and esci 5mg, how long does it take to effect, can we add bupropion to pristiq later. Please kindly advise. I am addicted to chewing tobacco. I shall be highly obliged for the help done. Diagnosis: (PNS X-ray result Deviated Septum and PFT result Bronchial Hyper responsiveness and HBA1C 6.4%) (TMT, Echo, TSH, SGPT, Uric Acid, ESR, Chest X-ray, CBC, ECG, Trop-T = all normal) (CT Scan not done).
I shall be highly obliged and grateful for the help done, I am very much effected with this problem Doctor. Kindly help.
