Have any of the women on Effexor XR had changes in their menestrual cycle? I have now been diagnosed with iron-deficiency anemia since being on Effexor XR for almost 5 months now. I take 150mg per day and I seem to be getting new side effects every week. I get migraines every day, terrible nightmares, blurred vision and now absense of my period (I am not pregnant!), etc.I am so scared to get off this drug! I missed one pill and I thought I was dying, I felt like a walking zombie, shaky and numb. Plus my heart was racing and I had difficulty breathing. My internal medicine doctor looked at me with complete concern when I told her that I was on this drug. I know its different for everyone, but I am now worried about the effects of this med and what my body is going through. I hope that I am not perminately damaged. What the hell should I do? If one day off this med is so terrible, I dont even want to go through the complete withdrawl.
