In reply to low dose effexor - wish me luck, posted by linkadge on October 30, 2010, at 14:41:25
Good luck Link. I'm still on the fence regarding FX, though I'll probably settle for something next week (either FX or Valdoxan, not sure yet). Anyway, I'll be interested to know how you get along on your low dose.
Take care!
