>>>>(1)Has anyone experienced JOINT pain in either taking Effexor or trying to get off of it?
I had joint pain on Remeron and Effexor but I got used to it and ended up taking Effexor for over 3 years.
>>>>(2)Does that sound possible to be stress related?
It could be.
>>>>(3) From the posts I've read it sounds like taking 1.5 more months to get off is reasonable? Lower dose by 37.5mg once a week from 150mg now?
I stopped it cold turkey and really suffered from the effects of doing so after about a month and landed in the hospital this last April.
>>>>(4) The doc is I believe pre-disposed with me now to believe all is stress after the workup that was done with me a year ago. Should I be concerned with this?
Always be concerned about your health, and talk to everyone you can to help you :-)
Best wishes.
