I have been on Effexor since last November. I'm currently taking 150mg, down from 225mg last week to try and get rid of these awful twitches and jerks. :( My eyesight has changed dramatically since being on Effexor. I can barely read anything without majorly straining my eyes. Reading the phone numbers in the phone book is totally impossible. I've got an appointment with an eye doctor next month to get glasses for reading. :( The only good side effect I've had from the Effexor is that in the last month I have lost 12 1/2 lbs. YIPPEE!!!! BUT, since my dosage was decreased to 150mg from 225mg, I have gone into a manic state and I'm eating more. :(
