Man ... this stuff is wiping me out ... it's the lowest dose of effexor and I was all dizzy, stuff was shiny (like in a migraine) and I'm getting all sorts of freaky muscle pain in my head, face, and neck. I was trying to get something done, but had to go to bed for a couple of hours. I was afraid that I wasn't going to be able to tolerate this stuff ... how can people STAND these effects?
