Prozac = bad for Diabetes?
I've been on Zoloft, a near cousin of prozac and have had no problems with
my {*filter*} sugar. Depression effects a number of physical problems, ie,
sleep, appetite, energy, etc., all of which can affect eating habits and
other life style components. An increase in {*filter*} sugar may be a function
in an overall change in mood, behavior, and habits as the depression lifts.
It might not have been effected by the prozac itself.
