Hey Zonked, sorry your having a rough time. Someone else here is currently posting about terrible start up on pristiq. Have you asked your pdoc about these symptoms--they sound extreme. When I started, I had flu-like symptoms for a few days that began to dissipate. No two people are alike--maybe this drug isn't the one for you, but I don't know.... I do know the withdrawal can be a protracted nightmare. Hope this is more helpful than alarming.
