Feeling panicky

Stress is bad for our bodies so if the tablets are helping keep with them un5il you feel able to gradually reduce xxx

As Grogg says stress is bad for us so you need to try and work out what is going to prove to be the least stressful for you.  

I would talk to your medical team and see what their thoughts are on any risks from the antidepressants you are taking.  It could be the risk is tiny or maybe it isn't a risk at all in their opinion.  If it is a risk you could always try slowly coming off themto see how you feel and if you need to you could always start taking them again.  

Definitely talk to your doctors first though before you make a decision and definitely before taking yourself off/reducing any meds you are taking as that I think should only be done under a doctor's supervision.

Hope you reach a decision you are comfortable with x

Hey! Stressy times! Please continue your medication until you speak to a doctor.

I have been taking propranolol and Sertraline since my diagnosis - I needed something to help me cope, and after basically breaking down with my doctor I was prescribed these drugs. I feel that they have helped me keep an ‘even keel’ throughout my diagnosis and treatment. I’m now 3 years post diagnosis and still take them....

Thanks for the replies I think I will give it a bit more time before I make a decision 

It might be worth discussing this with a pharmaist, as they're usually pretty knowledgeable about interactions etc.

I'll be interested too, as I'm on long-term antidepressants, previously taken Tamoxifen / Anastrozole 9 yrs ago and now having treatment for reoccurance, about to start Letrozole.

For me, it will be down to quality of life, I have to say ;)

I will ask the pharmacist and see what they say and let you know.

Sorry you've had a reoccurrence and hope everything goes well for you x

Thanks Artisan

I hope all goes well for you too
