hello, well here I am once again just about to restart my fluoxetine journey, several months ago I was on 40mg per day and was eventually in a happy place mentally, but due to blood tests showing a liver enzyme problem my doctor decided that possibly this was caused by the fluoxetine sad however this has turned out to not be the case, a blood test result today still showing enzyme problems! so starting on 20mg today, and if the last time is anything to go by, I will end up on 40mgs. the past few months have been traumatic having lost the wellbeing that the fluox had given me, but I pray that in another 2-3 months I will, once again, be a happy chappy! with regards from the far north of Scotland, UK.cheesygrin
