When I started using Effexor, I had extreme chest pain for weeks and finally went to the emergency room. There, they said I has having a panic attack and treated me with ativan, which did nothing for the pain. They also gave me a heart burn cocktail, which helped slightly for about an hour.
I took antacids, pain meds and nothing worked. Finally the pain lessened, but it took 3 weeks.
Has this happened to anyone else and what did you do to lessen the pain?
