Sorry to hear this Janis! I deal with these things a lot myself. Have you had a chance to check out the Symptoms and Self-Care section? There's lots of helpful tips in there. I'm glad you're holding your dose for now.
Venlafaxine (tapering) - Current dose 17.92 mg
Trazodone - 50 mg
Levothyroxine - 25 mcg
