I switched off of of Paxil 25mg CR and went to Lex. The doc told me that paxil has a very short life and was out of my system in a couple of weeks. He weened me off the Paxil by giving me 1 week of paxil 12.5 at the same time I was taking 10 of lex. I am now at 15 with the lex. I still fight some nausea when I'm not doing well and suspect that is more of a mental thing. I have lost wait because of this. From what I have read 10 seems to be normal. Some have started out at 5. This whole process has only been about 4 weeks for me. I go back to the Psy, Doc, on Tuesday and I am going to get my exact start date. i have a question, I'm leaving down next week with a trip my wife and I have been taking for ten years and I now am starting to get anxiety feelings. This is all new to me, any ideas on how to help cope. Good Luck let me know how things are going it sounds like we are following the same path. Tim
