Its amazing to me how they can give us these drugs to help us, and actually know so little about them. My Dr. said the same thing and I have to say, when I look at all of the posts from board to board and I see REAL people having REAL withdrawls, and now I myself have had the most awful withdrawl experience from EFFEXOR XR (and still am) I want to just look at my theropist and ask him, "ARE YOU REALLY A PHD"? I think you might want to do the same thing Im doing, find a new DR. I know that my side effects have been, vomitting, bathroom issues, nasuea, headaches, flu-like feelings, crying spells, anger, anxiety, sleeplesness, you name it and it has been felt. Im sorry things are hard for you, I was told that because I was only on 75 mg a day, there would be no way I would feel withdrawl symptoms. Good Luck to you, I know that what we are dealing with is real, and is the hardest thing I have ever done. STAY STROONG :)
