>Funny you should say that, a few days ago I had waves of goose bumps with a tinge of adrenaline come over me slowly in response to being a little bit cold(nearly winter here). Drugs that increase serotonin can upset your body's temerature as it is controlled by some serotonin receptors, some people suffer bad night sweats. Same goes for your digestive system, Effexor gives me bad nausea that I could never shake, I take Remeron to counter the nausea & it gives me a great nights sleep. What digestive problems are you suffering & how long have you been taking Effexor?
