Whats happening?
Posted by Anjelika on 05/25/05 at 08:07 PM

I started Taking Effexor Rx about two weeks ago.Starting at 37.5mg then moving now almost a week ago up to 75mg.Now, i must ask,what are these brain zaps that you guys are talking about? what do they feel like? The swooshing in the ears..i get that too..i might have gotten it before though,the doc said its from excess water in the brain(eyes,optic nerves).Anyway i was put on Effexor for somethings assosiated with Hypochondria and GAD.Now, i would like to talk to people about the real harm here because i dont think i should be on anything..i think that if i cant get over these feelings and the way i think then thats just the way im supposed to be.Last night was my first cold sweat while sleeping and i am having crazy CRAZY ass dreams, and well yeah..im not gaining weight at ALL..i dont have an appetite, while two weeks ago before starting i used to eat soooo much..but im just worried im LOOSING the weight now!which i dont want.i WAS a very healthy,full eater.I have read that eating certain foods while on effexor can cause bad side effects..like lets say Red Meat?I basically live off meat..i cant go by without my steaks.Will someone please give me the info on this drug? The REAL info!Because what the docs and the stupid internet says its a lie to get you onto this shit..Thanks!
