    If there is a change of having bad side effects from the med swap its only sensible to wait after the interview. I am only concerned what happens if they offer the job with a starting day within the next two weeks. That wont be a good time neither. Sometimes (well quiet often) life sucks, that's probably how you feel now. Go with your instinct, but please don't forget, your health is more important then any job.

    I thought you'd decided Tuesday? Hunni, I think that you can't possibly start orlistat when you have an interview booked! I think that waiting until you have a clear day makes sense..
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    None of these are final interviews, so I should have, in reality, until early August or later until I actually start a job, so hopefully plenty of time in-between. I really need a job, sitting at home is doing me no good at all.

    Sorry, I didn't mean to be a cow. I've been irritable all day. I am not keen on reducing Venlafaxine but I am stuck with this issue of weight gain. Its really getting me down and I am fed up of having to make this choice between being stable and not being blind. What a choice!

    You are not a cow, what you are going through is awful. Do the interviews and then do the meds on Tuesday and see how it goes. Give it time and try to stay patient and optimistic.
