EFFEXOR AND LONG TERM SIDE EFFECTS
I am a Neurochemist at Mayo in Jax,Fl.
I had experienced hypovolemic shock 3 times due to severe blood loss. I have not been the same since. I believe I am suffering depression almost as if it was 'post dramatic-stress syndrome'.
When you bleed copiously, norepinephine kicks in from your adrenal system and you are in a constant 'flight or fight' mode.
I am already anemic, I take iron,I want to get off the Effexor, but I am afraid of how I will feel since my body is already accustomed to it.
I have also noticed I bruise very easy. I am 28 and I know with any medicine there are long term side effects. The efficacy of Effexor has been extremely helpful, but I want to be all natural again.
Any suggestions would be helpful and appreciated.
What do you do about no libido(woman)?I need some doctor to prescribe me "xyreme"!
I need it to help me wean off the Effexor and get my libido back, as well as my old self.
Who every said it(xyreme or sodium-sorbate) was addictive was just clamoring activist's who had teens abusing it and mixing it with alcohol.
If used properly and as prescribed it treats depression better than any other drug we at (Mayo)analyzed; with no side effects!
Thank you in advance for your help.gldngodess(a.k.a. Dr. R. V. Andrews) at neuronic@bellsouth.net
