Ok so.. I started taking Zoloft uh, two weeks ago. I'm breastfeeding my 8 month old. 

I've had hives for 3 days or so, give or take. I'm not 100% sure they are from the meds, or even hives. I've seen fleas jumping around >.< We have a dog that goes out back... I've seen two fleas in the past week. Not sure what flea bites look like.

My 8 month old had little bumps that looked alot like mine earlier today. Might be my pills? Might be the papya she jsut started? Might not be anything?

I called my Dr. She said to stop taking these pills. Now, I'm worried because I'm on these pills due to depressing, awful thoughts... I can't take anymore of it.. I had to get help.. I tried many natural things.. nothing worked...

In the past I took Welbutrin XL and ended up in the hospital from swelling, hard time breathing, rashes.. the works... so I'm scared a little...

 

 

So.. here are my options...

Stop taking the pills (not being 100% sure it's whats causing them, and risk getting thoughs)

Take half the pill

Continue taking them as I am and see if I get hives tomorrow 

I'm leaning twards half a pill... I'm wondering whateveryone else would do....

Thanks.. please comment, atleast take the poll... please...

I'm going to bump this alot cause I have to take my pill soon if I take it... Thanks for the help, please bump

Your doc said stop taking them so I would stop and make an appt.  It sounds more like the fleas could be the issue but better safe than sorry.  Good Luck.

I woudl say take half a pill sound to me like flea bites which can resemble hives if you get enough of them. They are really itchy and they start out small and get bigger teh more they itch and are irrtated..

I am on a handful of meds for anxiety and depression.  I would listen to your doctor and stop taking the pills.  I would also get an appointment with my doctor, asap.  I have been on Zoloft on for me I might as well have been taking a placebo, but all medicines work differently for each person.  I have learned not to mess around with these meds.
