Hi, my husband and I started taking Effexor a few weeks ago and I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced these side effects as well..
-loss of appetite (I lost 8 pounds in 2 wks)I've heard that people usually gain weight on these.
-no feelings ( don't care )lack of emotion
-extreme tiredness yawning all the time
-yeast infections or discharge ( I actually got a pap test that came back clear and I totally thought that I had a yeast infection, both my husband and I were burning and irritated down below which has never happened before so we thought that it might be the meds.
-moodiness and bitchinessI know and heard of all of the more common side effects but these ones I haven't heard of so I thought I'd ask to see if anyone else experienced anything like this
Also since I've been on Effexor for such a short time do think that withdrawal will be easier? It just is not agreeing with me. I'm going to try Homeopathy.
