In reply to mercedes, how's it going?, posted by bookgurl99 on September 8, 2003, at 22:43:19
Oh Books, I forgot to mention that I am getting off Effexor. I was up to 300mgs, and really felt happy, smiling again. But one of the side effects is high blood pressure. Well with these possible mini-stroke attacks, I should not take anything that could possibly increase my blood pressure. I was also having the blurred vision and a hell of a time concentrating. Memory problems too, but was willing to have these just to feel happy again. I'm down to 150mgs, no real bad withdrawal effects, just a cpl days of shooting pings and pangs in my arms and face. Monday I will go to 75mgs. I see my pdoc Tues. and maybe he'll try me on another AD. I don't know. I'm just sick of taking meds. I seem to get more depressed, but if you read my last post, I have good reason....no?
Mercedes.....miss you
