Hi all,
I've written about some issues in another thread: Nightmarish Life After 8 Years On SSRIs
I think some part of my symptoms might relate to thyroid dysfunction, since I have: chronic fatigue, dizziness, trembly, hair loss, palpitations, exercise intolerance, temperature intolerance, insomnia. I'm getting this tested fully, but won't get the results for a week.
Tonight I'm feeling extremely agitated, unable to sleep, and very very fatigued. All I have available is an unopened packet of mirtazapine. I am not otherwise medicated.
I'd take this immediately, but came across several studies where it is shown to alter thyroid and cortisol functioning very quickly. Now I'm no longer sure if it's a good idea, since I'm feeling pretty fragile anyway E.g.
- Effect of mirtazapine on thyroid hormones in adult patients with major depression. - PubMed - NCBI
Could taking mirtazapine be potentially harmful for one night if I am in fact hypo or hyperthyroid, or if there is some cortisol dysfunction?
