Hi Steve. I was put on 75mg of effexor about 2 years ago, just finishing as I speak. I had the exact same sexual side effects as you, and rest assured, they go away. I remember feeling very asexual for about 6 weeks, but after that my libido + orgasm/ejac went back to normal. If I remember quickly, it changed very rapidly, over the course of several days. Since then, I've been perfectly normal, perhaps even with a slight libido increase. But maybe that's just me. Glad to hear you've found something that's working, try and entertain yourself with something wholesome like chess until you are back to normal :)
