Awwwww Debz..I feel for you as you know I have been struggling myself so I can totally relate. Hugssssssssss

As for your fiance, I have the same issue with my husband. He now tells me I am toooo thin and he likes "thick" woman. But loves me no matter what size I am! I know how frustrating it can be. I just don't talk to my husband about what I look like because I know his answers are never going to please me inless he lies..

I have no answers for you on your meds, before surgery I was on a zillion different meds but after surgery my surgeon told me to stop and see how I felt and I thought I was doing really well off of them but now after 2 years out I am thinking I probably need them or something at the very least.

Hang in there sweety! Sending you hugsssssssssss

((((Debz)))) If you don't want to take the Wellbutrin then maybe your dr will switch you to something else. If you need it, you need it. I have to have my anti-depressant or I will end up in a ball in my bed & never get up. I'm on Lexapro.

I hope you figure out what to do & feel better soon.

Hey Debz- I too am a Wellbutrin girl. Damn Bi-Polar that runs in my family. I was taking the time release before surgerya and now my doc (at the request of my surgeon) has switched me back to 150mg twice a day and still I just about have to break those tablets in half. But it seems to be working ok... Hang in there girl. We're all here for you!!

Default I take Wellbutrin XL

Debz, I just had the surgery last Wednesday, and my doctor kept me on the Wellbutrin XL 300 mg once a day. I have had no problems taking it, pouch-wise. I don't know if I'm getting the full benefit of it, but no problems, I even took it in the hospital the 2nd day. Hope that helps.

I used to take the SR twice a day, so that's an option. I also take other pills and capsules, even together and have had absolutely no problems. Good luck.
