I had a long CD attack a few weeks ago about the time I'd weaned myself off 10mg of Lexapro. I weaned myself gradually, over about 2 months.
After going back on a half dose my attack cleared up so I thought, but now I'm wondering if this half dose (rather than a full dose) of my SSRI is causing me to be in a continuing low-grade flare.
* My rosacea is back (it vanished since I began Pentasa).
* My eyes are feeling "that" feeling that I associate with inflammation.
* Most telling, my cramping and diarrhea are mild but chronic (normally unless I eat a trigger food or get lazy with my meds I'm cramp and D free).
I'm suspicious it's being on only a half dose of my SSRI.
I'm interested in feedback on that. I know some of you have seen a connection in your own disease and SSRIs.
Any thoughts??
Edited to add I see my GI in March.
