Ativan

When I saw my primary care doctor I told her I wanted to try to go off the effexor because I thought it was making me depressed. She suggested I stay on it. She said most women feel depression after cancer treatment. She said I'd been through a lot this past year. She prescribed Ativan to help me sleep. It's also an antidepressant and can help with hot flashes. I'm actually feeling so much better! Still tired but at least I can sleep all night.
