Hi,
I'm taking effexor XR right now, and 2 days ago, my right hand started shaking really badly for about 1 hour.
Has anyone had this experience? It REALLY scared me. I went to see my Dr. and she said it wasn't the medication because it came on too suddenly, so she upped the meds, saying I was still too depressed. So frustrating! I feel as if she wasn't listening to a word I was saying. She said that I didn't want to take it and I need to. The medical student said: "maybe it's a panic attack" but those aren't the symptoms of a panic attack. I felt like I had so little control... felt like I was just being pushed aside as a mental patient...
