My two cuties :) Group: Members Posts: 7,394 Member No.: 788 Joined: 29-September 04	It went ok - she put me on Lexapro. It's a really low dose - 5 mg for the first week and then I'm supposed to start taking 10 mg and then maybe up to 20. I really wish I could have seen my OB instead of her - the nurse practitioner was nice and very sympathetic, but she didn't really talk to me about what I was feeling or ask me any questions. She just came in and started talking and then told me what to take. I'm supposed to go back to see her in 2 to 4 weeks, but I think I'll make the appointment with my OB instead. It would have been about a 2 week wait to get in to see my OB for this, so I guess it's good that I went to see this other lady. But I like my OB so much better. -------------------- Sara ~ Wife to Scott, Mommy to Andrew 6-12-05, Alison 2-20-07, and our angel in heaven 4-20-06

If you are able to make your followup with your OB,,,then all is well ! I sincerely hope you start feeling better soon. -------------------- Peggy Wife to Tim (Oct 1996) Mom to Sammy (Nov 2004), Abby (Jun 2006)

Gold Member Group: Members Posts: 1,273 Member No.: 4,017 Joined: 22-June 06	I'm on a med similar to Lexapro from PPD/BiPD - Citalopram. It really helps, makes me feel human again! I would have never been able to go back to work and take care of everything without it, I really hope you have good results! -------------------- Jackie - mama to Carly Evelyn (01-05-07) and Bride-to-Be (02-28-09)
