> Thanks for you message, I appreciate not being deluged in positive or negative information. Although I respect everyone's opinions, I know I need to figure out how it will work for me, specifically, and I suppose with that comes the responsibility of dealing with both the wanted and possible unwanted effects. The headaches are gone now, but I was exhausted today. I'm still not sure if it's b/c i took it in the am or b/c my sleep has been disturbed for a few days since starting the effexor. I plan to stick with it at least a few months, at which time we'll see if the negatives outweigh the positives. I'll keep you posted.

I know you don;t want a borage of negatives. Plese just be careful, alot of people focus on the side effects while "ON" FXR. I was one who had "great" results, while ON Effexor, but the "WITHDRAWAL" is the kicker. I would have "never" taken this drug had I know the withdrawal was this horrible. ER twice so far in 7 days and no I am not a hypochondriac, this is more real than I wished it were.
I am scared. I cry everyday.
Information is our greatest asset in life if we use it to protect ourselves.
Prayers are with you,
Pamela
