Thank you for checking back in:-)
It sounds like it was a combo of the Effexor and some gastrointestinal goings on. Maybe she is allergic to something. Wheat Gluten-Intolerance is very common and of course lactose intolerance.
Effexor really helped me with my tummy problems~I'm sorry to hear it didn't seem to for her.
You take care and God Bless you both:-)
> Well the visit went ok.

> The doc is weening her off the Effexor slowly, It's working on her depression but the side-effects are slowly taking over her battle. On the grand scale of things... side-effects making you feel bad or the depression... some might say stick with it others... get off! We chose to get off and try something else.

> He is also putting her on a very strick diet to rule out any gastro-intestinal food related illnesses (allergies, crohns, etc.) We'll see in a few weeks how things are.
>
> The withdrawl symptoms she had because the hospital made an error are going away. Have to say it was quite entertaining watching her sleep. (Lots of sleep walking activities like dream shopping, dancing, kick-boxing *yeah*) Brain Zaps were not fun to watch. :(

> Boy those medecines are really doing weird things to your system. I used to be on Zoloft and I periodicly had moment of Hyper Reality, where I was more aware of every little thing. Almost had an accident when driving. Road lines looked to interesting to watch. Bizarre. (I won't get into what it did with my libido... what libido?!)

> Anyways thank you for your support.
