September 12, 2026

This may not be related to withdrawal because I was recently exposed to RSV and adenovirus. Taking it easy today.

Sorry to hear this! Are there any tests you can take to rule these things out? I'm glad you're resting and hope you feel better soon. 💝

Venlafaxine (tapering) - Current dose 17.28 mg
Trazodone - 50 mg
Synthroid - 25 mcg

I’m feeling better today, just a little anxious.
