I am having everyside effect you can imagine and I even went to my PC doctor thinking that there was really something wrong with me. I had a battery of blood tests all come back normal and my SIL called to tell me that it could be the withdrawal effects of Effexor. She recommended acupunture for me. Has anyone tried it here if so did it work?

I tried it for the Withdrawal symptoms and didn't feel all that great (better) afterward. It definately has been a trying time for me. I have another appt tomorrow and hope that works better.
