Hey all. I have been taking Effexor for at least a year now. I have felt for the past 6 mo or so that it wasn't enough at 150mg in the morning. I finally told my doc that I needed more. I had tried a different pain med, but it made me puke. I started smoking again, and my pot use has gone up due to the pain.
So I've been on it 2 x a day now for almost a week. I actually woke up yesterday morning in a good mood. I've noticed that I'm super hungry now, but when I do eat, it's the same amount as always. Do you think the increased night dosage makes me more hungry in the morning?
I'm also taking metformin for PCOS, which raises my blood sugar level. I was taking both doses in the morning (because I hate taking pills), but now that I have to do a night dose with Effexor, I switched it to 1 2xday.
Any thoughts?
