I seem to recall a little of that, along with temperory appetite loss, funny taste in mouth and a little queasy. All past relatively quickly and to be honest, I haven't looked back since. Good luck x
PS: mt dose is 40mg

I have had it several times, and my usual side effects are dry mouth, yawning and insomnia, and coldness. this time I have had none of that, I've had extreme tiredness and twitching.

Prior to being on these ad's I was twitchy. Sorry, no further help on this one but hopefully someone will pop along soon with some constructive advice x

Oh God yes!

I spent a whole night twitching away when I took it.Parts of me twitched that I didn't know could twitch.Oddly the first time I took it,I had no side effects at all.

The Dr said it would stop and it did,but I hada few sleepless nights with it first.

How are you anyway?I've not seen yu on here recently.

I have had very sporaddic internet access! everyone thinks I have left mumsnet, but in fact I am sharing the internet with one of my neighbours and he often either doesn't pay the bill or he moves the router and I can't get a signal, or for some other reason it just won't work.

I've been sinking, slowly and surely, for months. This is an AWFUL time of year for me and the worst of it is, I have no idea why. I am ok though, dragging on as usual!

I found myself twitchy when I heard banging music, it was weird, but only lasted the first 3 weeks.
