Oh No!

My Beloved husband is on Paxil, maximum dosage, for Parkinson’s depression, and has a history of kidney stones, and from “aldosteronism” undiagnosed, but now treated with Spirinolactone.

Is this something else I have to worry about? I am so depressed, because I am his only care-giver. There are days when I feel overwhelmed.

No don’t take him off. I am a Vestibular Patient. That means hearing and sensrory processing damage. That is why I can’t take it. The reason my wife can’t is simuliar. She has extreme neurological issues. If he’s been on it a while he’s likely fine. The time you have to watch is during the first month or so as it builds up in the blood stream. Please be very very carefull with over the counter medications like antihistamines though with him. Call the doctor first and let him prescribe something safe to go with the Paxil. If not then that can trigger it.
