Hi all,
I hope you are well...I really need some help / feedback. 3 weeks ago, my doc raised my effexor prescription to 262.5 mg. Now, I've always had a nervous stomach, prone to feeling queezy etc... but now I feel like I'm going to throw up all the time! (and sometimes i do... :(
Now, i only take it every 2 days because I feel so ill all the time, but now I'm getting the effexor 'brain shivers' all the time.
Rock and a hard place eh?
What can I do? Am I on too much? My mother thinks I may be becoming toxic. I'm tired of being so ill all the time!
Please help if you can!

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

Has anyone tried these supplements? Do they give MGers more quality of life by improving memory and overall well being?Thanks!Barbel
I feel really really ill guys. And, I feel scared too... :{
For both depression and anxiety the usual starting dose is 75 milligrams once daily, although some people begin with a dose of 37.5 milligrams for the first 4 to 7 days. Your doctor may gradually increase the dose, in steps of no more than 75 milligrams, up to a maximum of 225 milligrams daily. As with regular Effexor, the doctor will make adjustments in your dosage if you have kidney or liver disease.
I looked it up on google. Phone the hospital! Just in case :)
I'm really scared guys.
