My rheumatologist recommended Lexapro 10mg because I suffer from chronic exhaustion, body pains and fatigue.
I don’t have anxiety or depression (thankfully), have suffered from both in past. I have been having unexplained fatigue, body pains, brain fog, low mental bandwidth and exhaustion, all starting postpartum and it has been there for 2 years. All tests are normal, Dr suggested this medication and I am honestly confused because it seems the issues I was prescribed this for, are side effects of this medication?? Anyone with similar issues prescribed this drug and did it help? I asked my doctor to explain and she said just try it, sometimes we don’t understand why and what helps!
