Effexor - Severe Abdominal Pain

Posted by mb7522 on September 12, 2003, at 8:23:04

Hello,
My wife is now on a 225 mg dose of Effexor XR and she has been suffering intense abdominal pain since increasing the dose. We have been at our family GP and then landed in the ER. She was tested for Crohns, Kidney Stones, Gall Stones, Appendecitis and a few others and ALL came back negative. They even gave her an enema for constipation. After 4 days in hospital and NOTHING, finally the doctor suggested might be anxiety.
I have read that Effexor might cause abdominal pain. She thinks she's going nuts. Has anybody ever had these effects?
WORST of ALL the hospital did not administer her Effexor during her stay, now she's suffering from withdrawl.
Pierre
