| 2 | Stage 1 5mm Breast Cancer lump | 30 lb weight gain in 2 months caused me to relapse with starvation eating disorder at age 49. This type of drug makes it near impossible to lose weight. I still starve and continue to gain or maintain. I take laxatives. Hot flashes. Body aches...could be due to Fibromyalgia too. Insomnia .I have always gotten headaches but a year ago headaches got worse. 6 months ago started occurring daily. Now they are migraines and tension headaches. that I get daily. They interfere with work and sleep. Oh I now have Osteopenia. | Medications sometimes help headaches which is what I am dealing with mostly now. (and eating disorder)., My primary and psychiatrist have given me some drugs...one I can't remember and Topamax. They are not doing much I am calling Oncologist today and telling her about the severity of the headaches and what I think they are from and that I am becoming severely depressed. Work and sleep is being affected and my quality of life is diminishing. I sat in my therapist's office and just cried yesterday. I have seen her for 4 years and it is the first time she has EVER seen me cry. | F | 53 | 4 years 25MG 1X D | 8/23/2013 | |
