I have yet to find any studies or pharmakinetical evidence as to what causes the zaps. Then again neurologists DON'T KNOW WHAT CAUSES SSRI/SNRI'S WORK!!! So I suspect after most of the drugs become generic and the big drug companies stop pushing them so much we will begin to learn more about it or maybe as people in the medical field finally start recognizing the negative side effects and stop going to paid 'educational' seminars for new drugs... grr... I tried to explain my symptoms, and I suspect my pdoc really doesn't even believe me, perhaps that is why she tried to push the risperdal(Antipsychotic) on me??? That's as good of an answer as I have...
Also, I have considered that the 'zaps' may actually be partial seizures -- from parts of your brain having trouble functioning without the drug present... who knows...
Anyone else wanna give that one a shot??
