ABloke, I hope this helps.
I used Remeron back in 1997 when it first came out. After a while, whenever I took a pill I got a sensation in my arms, legs and head like all of the blood was leaving them, then rushing back in, and then leaving again, in a cycle that lasted a couple of minutes and didn't stop. Also, my vision would get blurry when the blood rushed out, then sharp again, and there were sexual problems too.
It got much worse with caffeine or over the counter decongestants, and back then I still smoked marijuana, which also made it worse. I told my doctor, and he actually increased my dose. It got so bad, I was having chest pains (not accompanied by anxiety) and getting so dizzy I'd nearly pass out. Finally, I stopped. The symptoms NEVER WENT AWAY! I have been suffering from this problem ever since. I can't drink coffee or alcohol, or use any drug that affects blood pressure or heart rate. The cycle of blood rushing to and from my extremities occurs every minute of every hour of every day. It's been like this for 11 years.
All of the doctors I've seen tell me they don't know what the problem is. I've given up trying to figure it out, and I don't have health insurance anymore anyway. I'm 30 years old now. I get dizzy spells, I have blurry vision, trouble concentrating when the blood rushes out of my head, and I'll probably never be able to satisfy a woman in the normal way. If I die young of some heart related or vascular disease, at least it should be obvious what the cause is. Using Remeron was the worst mistake of my life.
I've been searching for answers for 11 years. If anyone has experienced anything like this, or if anyone has any information at all, please reply.
