Hope all is getting better for you. I too have been a little on the cold side, probably because an increase in norepinephrine constricts peripheral blood vessels. That plays a part in the impotence thing as well.
Mostly, I have all the anti-cholinergic side effects that I feared I would, although it's not too bad. Most irksome is the inability to pee normally. It just kinda sl-o-o-o-wly comes out.
My energy is definitely improving, a bit of insomnia. I am only on day 9, so any mood effects are likely still in the future.
Keep posting!
