In reply to muscle aches from paxil withdrawal/fibromyalgia?, posted by ben on December 25, 2001, at 5:12:29
I feel dizzy, strange zaps in the head and agitated, depressed again. Now I am on 4 mg Paxil (read above) and tappered very slowly. How long does this continue ? I have to go off Paxil of different probs (liver, weight gain bruxism...) instead it helped my depression a lot. ... better than Celexa and Zoloft, Surmontil, Edronax...
Is it relapse or withdrawal ?! I want to get rid off Paxil and not a reintroduction aof this drug but it seems I have to pay to come of it.
I had similar probs coming off Celexa (nausea, dizziness, depressed feelings, agitation...). I hadnt probs with coming of Effexor or Surmontil....it seeems that the SSRIs are nastier to come of than tricyclic ADs but docs allways negotiate this. How can I overcome this crazy feelings ? I took a tinny dose (0.125 mg) of Klonopin at night and increased my Lorazepam to 1 mg/d.
What about muscle aches as withdrawal symptomes ???> I had to come off Paxil for several reasons. I tappered down very slowly from 30 mg to 10 mg (5 mg/week) and now I have muscle aches in the limbs and arms coming and going for over 4 weeks like a heavy flu. Especially in the tendons area. My doc said it could be fibromylagia but i dont fullfill all the tender ponints. He is also checking the thyroid function because of slow reflexes and my muscle pains. I also recognizel ittle panic feelings and nausea.
> Is it the Paxil or what, I had probs with quitting Celexa too, but only nausea and not muscle pain.
