1st Effexor Update - Feeling Okay

Dizziness and tinnitus are two of the most stubborn withdrawal symptoms, so it's good you're tracking them and still feeling okay overall. The Prozac bridge is a big change on top of an already long taper, that can stir up its own side effects for a few weeks while things level out. One thing worth noting: if the GI upset started around when you began the bridge, that's often the Prozac settling in rather than a sign the taper is off track.

Thank you. I have gastroparisis which and I began to question if it was worsening. My meals are sitting again for hours. My doctor, who admitted not being well versed in bead counting and deprescribing venlafaxine, told me to take the Prozac for two weeks and stop the Effexor. Yesterday was two weeks and I’m terrified. I went to 3 beads instead. What are your thoughts?

Yes, I’m interested in a new provider who takes my insurance. Aetna
