Like I'm Dying

A few days ago I started feeling really nauseous. I knew it was a side effect of my medicine, but it got so bad that I decided to lower my dose of lithium to 2 pills a day instead of 3. My symptoms however have not improved. In fact, they've gotten worse. I can't sleep, because I'm so shaky, especially my hands. I'm nauseous beyond belief, unnaturally tired and weak, and so dizzy. I can't focus, and it's even difficult to speak. Finally this afternoon I realized something was really wrong, and I opted not to take my evening dose of lithium.

I think it's lithium toxicity, so I'm calling the doctor in the morning. I just can't stop shaking and feeling so nauseous. Ugh... I need to stop shaking..................
