Been on Effexor for 2 to 3 years
Sex drive... What SEX DRIVE... The depression after college stopped my sex drive dead in its tracks. The Effexor isn't helping.
I belive back pain is direclty related to stress, Non Drinkers always have a bad back. Drunks have a back that could lift an elephant. (this is a generality).
Depression ==> Stress ==> Back Pain
Effexor stops the Depression and addresses the Stress.
Just my .02 cents

I've tried physical therapy, drugs, etc. and nothing has provided permanent relief. Over the past few weeks however, the pain has decreased significantly -- to the point I am forgeting about having the back problem -- does this sound familiar???? >>
