Now I couldn't tolerate that drug for some reason and when I said this to him he was not at all keen to change the drug. He prescribe the same thing again. I took online consultation doc wrote flouvoxamine and clonazepam and wrote diagnosis as cluster b traits? What is it? I'm expressing severe mood swings. I'm not able to keep calm, sudden anger, sudden frustration, guilt regrets even over small things, chest is paining, feeling short of breath, i never felt that earlier.
