Hi. I was referred to the neurologist by a psych nurse practitioner because I developed a pretty bad tremor on sertraline, so switched off that and onto cymbalta. Tremor is less but still present, though not enough to make me want to take mertazapine, which is what the neurologist suggested because it's also an AD and anti-anxiety drug, which are my two psych issues. They tell you up front that mertazipine will cause weight gain & that's a problem for me anyway -- I would have been happy on the Anxiety Diet, except for, you know, the anxiety. The NP wanted to get a baseline neuro exam -- I'm 59, so ruling out Parkinson's was also an issue. Thanks for asking!
