I'm quite worried about how badly my body aches. I was knelt down the other day while hanging some washing on the airer and the pain through my legs was awful.
It feels the same throughout my body so my arms are painful etc.

It's like I've worked really hard at the gym but allover my body and I know I haven't done anything more strenuous than usual.

I'm wondering whether this is related to my sertraline medication? Has anyone had similar?

It has improved my mental health substantially but I'm wondering whether this is a side effect. I'm worried it could be something more serious.

Will book a doctors appointment but curious if others have found the same!

Thank you for the quick response! Smile that long list of side effects is quite terrifying Grin

Hoping it is just the tablets because I'm fed up of feeling so tired and achey! But then I don't want to stop them incase my mental health is bad again

Hi, I’ve noticed I’ve been aching a bit since taking it but didn’t really link them until I saw your post! Maybe there is something in it? I do find that they make it impossible to get a full nights sleep. Since taking them I’ve been Waking every night around 2/3 am.

I've just upped my dose and my shoulders and arms feel like I've been to the gym.

Really interesting to see others are feeling achy too!!
I'm going to try get an appointment in the morning to talk about it, I'm praying it is just the tablets and nothing else. I have enough long term issues for my age Grin
