Nat, I was on prozac for many years(1992-2010) and it's a good ssri med. Considering how you're feeling at that dose(20MG is the base starting dose) ask your doc about going right to 40mgs and see how you do(he may go 30 then 40 mgs). The first and most basic thing a doc will do often when a med like prozac has helped a bit but still not enough is simply raise the dose. I bet it would help(might help tons).
Lean on us here as we understand. Really consider calling in to your doc on raising the dose of fluoxetine. Honestly it's the first thing I'd do as well as going in to see a counselor to talk all of this over(unless that has been done to Ad nauseam). I'm glad you have a supportive hubby. It means so much.
Kev is referring to med tests like thyroid, blood tests, etc...I think. PM me any time. Cheers....I mean take care y' hear!!!Alankay
