Question for people who have both PTSD and also [that basket of diseases that comprises ME/CFS, MCAS, dysautonomia, hEDS, Neuropathy etm.]
Have you found a medication for PTSD that does not cause a worsening of your MCAS or ME/CFS symptoms?
Are there medications that have helped you to manage flashbacks, anxiety attacks and triggers? And does managing these with medication reduce the frequency/severity of PEM for you?
Could you share some info about dosages as well? Did you start on a much lower dose than is "standard"? How long did you take to titrate upwards?
Note: not asking for info on other coping techniques for PTSD (meditation, therapy etc.).
Thanks!
