Increases GERD after stopping mirtazapine.
Posted , 3 users are following.
Hi I've already posted about coming off mirt and the withdrawals but this is something else I need some help with. It's week 7 since stopping mirts and what is currently frightening is that my mild gerd problem is now over the top and have to take nexium twice a day and I feel so sick and in so much pain in my back has anyone else gone through this?

Hi G
Yes you're right, reflux can be bad whilst tapering and when stopping Mirt, I can relate to that also. I am finding that anything with gluten is a complete no no, so its only porridge oats & rice now. I'm not keen on gluten free bread, I mean does it have any goodness in it anyway ! And I've read that gluten itself may cause anxiety although I don't have any science on the latter.
Also I find I have to eat less to prevent it; its going well now I've figured it out.
Are you saying the back pain is Gerd also?
Wishing you well

haha Hey Bluesy don't worry about being blunt, I need it! I am pretty sure the mirt withdrawals have somewhat gone and this stomach problem is different, I am a little annoyed though that maybe i got it so bad from the mirt or coming off it. I have 4 days to see the GI I don't want to mix up the meds just yet, although I have noted what you have suggested to discuss with the doc. For the first time I slept through to 4 this morning and again woke up with a scare and jolt, took mediation to get me back to sleep but again woke up in a sweat pool, I am trying to figure out if I am now getting sicker from the nexium or is it the gerd, or the anxiety, pick one, its like lucky dip only no fun!!
