Hey, about the Effexor? Yes, I too seem to bruise very easy.
I was wondering are you two(the one on celexa and the one on effexor) really thin, pale looking and anemic as well?
I was wondering because I read in the PDR that it can cause anemia, leukocytosis and leukopenia.
Also, during premarketing evaluation of effexor, it affected frequently, "body as a Whole":
accidental injury? < what's that suppose to mean, that we do not know about it when we get hurt? > :0Malaise and neck pain?-among other things.
When you bruise easy that means your blood has a coagulation problem. I had my lips lightly tattoed with the "permanant makeup", to put some color in them so I did not look so pale, and ugly...and my lips bled and bled,that the color only stayed in for a week or so. The lady was a professional in her field and asked me if I drank much alcohol, I said,"hell,I hate alcohol". She insisted the only people that really bleed alot are the ones who drink and she never saw anyone bleed so much. $450.00 gone.
I guess thank God I did not have any major surgery, I would of bled to death, who knows?
I am taking 300mgs. Ithink I want to go up to 375, because I am the type the more speedy the drug the calmer I am.
I took asthma medicine that said if it makes you feel nervous or jittery discontinue use, and it would always do the oposite and knock me out. The same with Sudafed and the similar.
Anyone have that experience?~Amanda
