    Hey girls,

    So I am on anti-depressants and have been on them nearly 2 months now..
    Been told by my PC that you have to be either on or off them for 6 months before you can have the surgery.

    Has any one else had this problem? And is there any way I can get around it? I know I am mentally stable and certain my doctor will give me a letter to confirm this!

    Thanks xx

    I haven’t heard anything like that Hun I’ve been on them for 3 years for post natal depression have wanted to come off them for a long time but found the withdrawal symptoms hell (sickness dizzy etc) so Istayed on. Sorry can’t be much help to you Hun but if you’ve been on them for two months then can’t you book your op date for in 4 months time as that’s not that far away and you can plan everything etc and space your appointments out? I had my first consultation on Nov and am booked for op end of march. It’s good to give yourself time xxx

    Also it takes your body 6months to adjust to the medication Hun and 6 months to adjust coming off it i think that’s probably why?
