Musky,
I am amazed, but probably shouldn't be, at how many symptoms we have that are identical. I am now 1 month off and am very tired. Strange things going on inside my body that is for sure.
We had storms last night that helped keep me awake and I found out I did not pass a certain certification I was going for so I was down. This probably affected me last night.
I have been having a lot of stomach tightness, like I just did 200 situps, and it moves up and down my chest too. Some burning sensation in my chest too. If it is bad sleep is hard to come by it seems to be an extension of anxiety that keeps me from being totally relaxed. I never had this before remeron. I guess one month is a short time off this drug and I need to be patient. I may look into something to help me sleep like skullcap or something.
One thing I am not getting is the startle effect when going to sleep. That appears to have been caused by the remeron.
Hope things even out sometime soon for all of us. I am thinking we have a long road ahead of us. I remember a poster that said he/she was on remeron for neck pain and it took 2 months for the anxiety and nausea/flu like stuff to calm down and (gulp, 8 months for the sleep) to get back to normal. I don't think it will take us that long but decent sleep will come (please, please).
cheers
