Just a note here guys, when I dropped from my 300, I felt the same SE's as when I was going on it, sweating, pounding heart, joint pain... all in reverse of when I titrated up. I too loved Effexor as the wonder drug for depression. But no more :(

KDi, and anyone suffering from high blood pressure. Monitor it closely. I think i have to go out and get one of those BP monitors, expecially now being on nitroglycerine. Monday my BP was 168/94, yesterday. Wed 120/60. I'm fluctuating to much. Also did ya'll know that high blood pressure causes migranes/headaches?

Lastly, regarding Elavil/Imiprimine. From WebMD, "you should tell your doctor if you have high blood pressure before taking this med.." Good thing is it doesn't interfere with OOOOOOO's and it appears the only warning on having a cocktail every now and then is that it may cause drowsiness. This may be a plus if you've suffered insomnia like I did with Effexor. At least we'd get a good night's sleep finally.
