Hi all me again lol so today I’ve been to hospital for bloods and urine there’s blood in my urine I have a water infection apparently so onto the bruise and purple blemishes I’ve had sweats aches and pains everywhere what I thought was sertraline is actually vasculitus not sure which form yet as I need to go to a specialist does anyone know about this condition all I know so far is  if there’s infection in your body this is a disorder that attacks blood vessels by inflammation I’m scared I’m trying not to google it and trying not to worry but it’s very hard xxxx there was me blaming sertraline

    I’m so sorry to hear this, my grandma had a type of this. I believe it’s like an Inflammation of your blood vessels. In her case her arteries became irregular so it was hard for her to get blood into her organs! I’m so glad you went ahead to the Dr to see about this! Please keep us informed and God bless you!

    Soo sorry to hear that!

    Maybe its a rare side effect if zoloft!?

    Since you developped that while on it.

    Is the zoloft helping you now?

    I ve just made a quick research and it seems to be a rare side effect... mostly in women older.

    But if you dont feel well on it and you have that, I would consider talking to your doctor.

    Dont be to anxious...I know its hard cause i also get really anxious are health but remind yourself that you are now being taking care off since the doctor knows.

    Take care xx

      Claire, if you stop you med without any taper you will feel withdrawal and that wont be a better option.

      Do you have something to help ease your anxiety for tonight?

      If not, take a bath and try to relax with breathing. You will be fine!!!

      If it was something major, the hospital would have keeping you.

      For tonight...just take it easy! If you are alone maybe try to call someone or go sleep at someones place if it can reassure you.

      Tomorrow you can call the doc to have more informations and ask for reassurance.

      But for now....you are okay and you will be fine! You need to rest !!!

      We are there for you xxc

      Probably just my own worries, but in 2016 the town I live in went under water from floods from a hurricane destroyed many businesses and homes around our area, luckily we didn’t flood but we came only about an inch or two from getting into my house, that’s way to close for my comfort!
