ok, to start off i have ocd and take zoloft for it. a while back, like 4 months ago, my zoloft ran out, so i started having these symptoms, then got back on meds and started feeling better day by day it seemed. then ran out again and now feel the same as first but a cuple of new symptoms. [headaches, nauseau when lying down at night, glarry or double vision, left armpit sore lymphnode(dad said was from going thru puberty), weak right hand, also right foot and leg, sore arm and foot muscles without knowing how it got there, sometimes twitchy musles, lower back pain, at left side, just sometimes, and on my nipples theres stretch marks, dont know if its because of the lumps or just puberty or weight, it seems like when i get a sore it takes longer then usual to heal] im so scared, like badly, i dont know if i should go to doctor because im scared they will tell me sometimes horribly wrong, but some ppl think its cuz im off my meds, like going cold turkey, so plz help, and make it good, lolHealth Question & Answer

I'm not 100% certain but, i think it's because you stopped taking the zoloft. My daughter ran out and she had the same thing happen to her, the dr. said it's important to not stop taking them without weaning yourself from them. i hope this helps you fell less scared.Health Question & Answer
Your body might just be adjusting to your body not being on the medication any more, sort of like "detoxing". If it doesn't go away in a week or so you might need to get it checked out. You might also be fighting off a cold or flu - as it is that time of year... but it probably has to do with your body adjusting to the lack of medication running through your system.Health Question & Answer
So you've answered your own question. You are just fine, but probably need to be taking your meds. Let your doctor and parents know that the meds run out and you forget to get them. They will help you to make sure you have enough and don't run out again. If you take your meds, I'm sure you'll feel better.Health Question & Answer
I don't know where you got the idea that cancer is anything like that, but maybe you should stop self-diagnosing due to ignorance and take your crazy pills like you were prescribed. No wonder you're a hypochondriac.Health Question & Answer

Try getting back on the Zoloft immediately, taking it the same time each day. After you have taken this for 14-21 days, reevaluate your signs and symptoms, or better yet, have a provider do it for you. You didn't give us your age, weight, or other meds you are taking. Do not live in fear, kiddo, take control of this immediately. Your physician should be understanding of your fears and ready to help you. Make the call.
