Welcome to PC. I question why the doc would want to take you off after so much loss even if you were doing good. If it aint broke don't fix it is my motto.

Some people have a hellava time coming off of Effexor. If you had withdrawal it should be done much much slower than you were doing. 200 to 75 is to fast even though pdocs think it is a long time. I have gone off of it a number of times without trouble but I have read enough from people on here to know it needs to go real real slow if you are having problems.
