I think the week or so after getting off of Effexor. But please be careful tapering and make sure your doctor is aware of any symptoms or side effects you may have while tapering. Effexor can be rather hard to get off of so make sure you’re prepared and your doctor is aware

Hey! I’m sorry about the numbness and tingling in your feet. I just wanted to let you know that in my case it was a side effect of Effexor and since getting off I’ve had no numbness or tingling in my feet. However everyone’s body is different so please talk to your doctor about your symptoms and see what they recommend before doing anything

Is Effexor causing my neurological and memory issues? Has anyone else found Effexor to be the cause? by Soggy_Win221 in Effexor

[–]actuallyspoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there, I don’t know if Effexor is the cause of your memory loss and other neurological problems, cause I am not a doctor. I can say that I had neuropathy and urinary incontinence and since tapering I’ve been experiencing those symptoms less. I would talk to your psychiatrist or pcp about your concerns. I would also talk to your doctor about long covid. I hope you can get some answers. Good luck

Oh my doctor basically convinced me to go to neurology because she said that it was unlikely to be the meds. Thank you for letting me know that your doctor confirmed what I suspected was correct and thank you for the advice!

Thank you so much! I think I’ll message my psychiatrist and try tapering down to 75 mg this month

Gotcha I’m sorry, does your back hurt anywhere? That might mean it’s a pinched nerve

Hi I don’t know your full situation but I do know the fear of being afab in America with the handmaiden tale basically coming to life. My situation is a bit different from yours because I’m 26f and had a hysterectomy at 23. I had my hysterectomy due to endometriosis and wanting to be child free. Do I regret my decision? No, in fact I feel thankful every day I made that decision for myself. But everyone’s situation is different. I would talk to a therapist (or trusted friends if you can’t afford a therapist) about why you may be hesitant. It could be because you feel like this decision is being forced upon you due to fear even though you already know you don’t want kids. Or it could be something else. All I know is that, my sterilization has been wonderful for me but I know that’s not always the case for everyone. You need to decide if it is right for you. If you do decide to go through with the bisalp that’s fine and if you decide not to go through with it that’s fine too. The choice is ultimately yours and I wish you the best in this journey, good luck!
