Has anyone out there ever had the feeling of fainting or fainted from there anxiety?
3 Years ago I was having feelings of faint and one day at lunch I actually fainted.
I was rushed to the hospital they did all kind of tests and never found anything.
The feeling faint never stopped and I nearly fainted a few more times. I finaly found a doctor the figured it was anxiety. She put me on 75mg of effexor xr it took about a month to start kicking in. After 6 months I was going on airplanes,rollercosters,and doing things I would have never done. In March of this year I decided to get off the med I went through 2 weeks of hell.
I felt ok until about a month ago, then the nervousness started coming back and now the fainting feeling is coming back. There has been nothing to triger these changes.
I am thinking about getting back on the drug I will start with 37.5mg to see ho it goes then incease if needed.
Has anyone got off effexor and then returned to it? How did it go? How are you now?
Thanks for info
Greg
