I took my Lex a couple of hours ago and my ankles are killing me right now and I'm feeling really anxious, although yogurt seems to be helping with the nausea. If this continues, I don't know if I'm going to be able to stay on Lexapro. It's only been five days and I'm supposed to go up to 20 mg after two weeks!The initial side effects can be quite bothersome, but they should taper off and go away. The worst was over for me after 2nd week, mostly gone after 5th week.
I started at 5mg, went to 10mg 5th week, and 20mg at 5 months. May I ask, why the big rush to go up to 20mg?~~~8|8
