Re: Losing weight after paxil

I gained 50 lbs in three years on Paxil. I've been off it for three weeks now and and waiting rather impatiently for the weight to come off. I think I've even gained more, and I work out every day and watch what I eat. I'm still going through the withdrawal symptoms to some extent, but luckily it wasn't nearly as bad as what I read. Has anyone out there experienced the withdrawals? If so, did you have severe allergies all of a sudden. I've been having to take benedryl every day to keep from sneezing my head off, and I rarely have allergy symptoms. I'm wondering if it is related. Also, my joints ache incessantly. Someone said their doctor, who like most will INSIST there are no side effects from going off Paxil, ran tests for fybromyalgia and lupus. It's funny that about the same time my mother went off Paxil, she also was diagnosed first with lupus, then with fibromyalgia, even though the tests were inconclusive. Now, I'm having symptoms for the first time since I went off Paxil. Coincidence? Does this go away????
