celexa and leg pain

I have so many medical problems and a wife who just dont understand the pain i am going threw in my back and leg and she dont understand why i dont do anything at home because im disabled and have all this time on my hands but everytime i move my back and leg kills me but she just dont listen neither does my doctor so i dont no if i can keep going like this any ideas?

Wont know blood work to the beginning of the wk. Really lost and sick of it. Have a pain were my scrotom and leg meet but it could be from straining to go to the bathroom. My stomach was kind of tender on the right side when she pressed on it but no rebound pain.

I've looked up muscle pain and Celexa but could not find any info. I would like to know more about this so I can talk to my doc. I was starting to think I might have Fibromyalgia. But all the symptoms aren't there. Can I still feel all this (and some twiching-not much though) even when I feel normal. I had forgotten I had anxiety and then felt a twitch or was reminded by muscle pains and then off I go thinking about it all.

re xanax and Celexa. I am new to this site. I know you can take both together. I was on Celexa 40 mg. and was also given a prescription for xanax. I was to take the xanax.when I got so jumpy inside that I couldn't stand it. I used it as an as needed basis and was fine taking both together.

You need to get investigations done such as blood tests for diabetes, hypothyroidism, Lyme and lupus, MRI and nerve conduction studies. You need to consult a neurologist for this. Take care!

In the time since, my anxiety has spiked, particularly in the morning/during the day, I get episodes of spiking blood pressure, feel like I have heart palpitations, still have random leg twitching and arm pain, and have trouble sleeping at night because when 4am rolls around my heart starts pounding! Am I still experiencing withdrawal even though I was on such a small dose for such a short time?

I know that withdrawing from opiates causes severe rls making it impossible to sleep. And when I withdrew from xanax quickly I also had the nausea, dizziness etc but the rls was the worst. Not sure about celexa but I'm sure its possible and very probable that the withdrawl is causing it.

CeleXa inhibits reuptake allowing more seratonin to be left in the synaptic gap causing the threshold for the nerves firing to be techniquelly less because less has to be delivered for the spark to occur since more is already there and available. I have smoked M. for 2 years and recently started CeleXa. The only thing ive noticed thus far is that I am less affected by the M. now that I am on CeleXa.

I have had fibromyalgia since a near fatal car accident 10 years ago. I am currently on Celexa and Methadone, and I have gained about 35 lbs. and I can't figure out how to stop it or why it is happening. My pain management doctor is a neurologist, and he just says it is a combination of the meds, menopause,not being as active, but he is not a diet doctor and his main concern is my pain. Is there another combination of meds that doesn't do this?

When i feel the symptoms resuming, i simply lay on my side, get into a very tight fetal position, really stretching the back and legs, hold for 2 minutes, release, and symptoms disappear for about 24 hours. I blelieve it is the stretching of the back that is doing something.

I was very surprised to find someone who was that caring, today is a bad day though, started my Celexa yesterday and holy cow it is making me all kinds of crazy and jittery.

t woken up with neck pain in the top of the back part of my neck. I also suffer from horrible anxiety. 8 days ago I started 20mg of celexa and two after I developed a constant tremor in arms, legs, jaw, and head. It isn't a violent tremor and it's barely noticeable. I went to the doctor and he cut my dosage in half but I stopped taking two days ago of this fear I developed over the tremors. My mind is going crazy with thoughts about serious diseases.

Once you learn that you have a controlling mechanism for your panic attacks, you will no longer fear them and you will get them less and less frequently. Celexa is more of an anti depressant, so it really won't bring you down if you get to the point of having a panic attack.

I've been on Celexa, Neurontin, and Meloxicam for some time due to chronic pain, depression arthritis, and neuropathy. I've been reading a lot about DLPA and it says NOT to take it with SSRI's. Does anyone know whether I should stop taking the Celexa before I ever start taking Ithis supplement? I'm very anxious to give this supplement a try! My depression has gotten severe...to the point that NOTHING works anymore, I have no sex drive, feel hopeless, I have no motivation, etc...

im on 4 vicodin 500mg a day 2 nuerotin 300mg a day flexaril every 8 hours celexa 1 a day and 1/2 xanax in mournig and 1 xanax at night 1mg. when i turn my head it creaks and grinds. when i get a flair up of tail bone pain(sciatica) only a hot bath relives the pain. my legs always feel fatigued and week.

And what is a better drug to take? I am ADD/ADHD and really stressed out. I feel better when I take celexa 20 mg. daily and 5mg of Ritalin twice daily. I am only 4'11" and this weight HAS GOT TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

of Celexa in addition to the 5-HTP. I had digestive cramps and pain, and an elevated pulse. When I realized my mistake, I immediately stopped both the Celexa and the 5-HTP, fearing serotonin syndrome. My digestive problems cleared completely, but tachycardia continued and got worse. After a very difficult week of this, blood tests revealed that my TSH was extremely low (.01), and my T4 was very high, indicating hyperthyroidism.

I currently take celexa and clonazepam for depression and anxiety. Is it safe for me to take extra strength tylenol with the clonazepam.

You souls like a very sweet and educated man!! Thanks a lot!! Day two of the Celexa and I am speeding my *** off !! Lol.

of your symptoms and how often they occur, how bad they bother you, if you take any pain relievers or other meds, and any changes you may experience. My post was really long but I put everything in there that has happened to me that may or may not be a factor simply because I'm not a doctor and I need help putting the pieces together. Tell your doctor you're not against taking the celexa but AFTER he figures out if you have a sinus or ear infection and what not. do you have insurance?

Hi everyone. My doctor just put me on Venlafaxine chl er for depression and pain, I am switching from celexa 40mg and have taken half of each each night for the past three nights. I feel horrible, I feel like a zombie, barely able to get out of bed, dizzy, blurry vision, spacing out, nausea, and all I want to do is sleep. Is this normal when switching drugs, I dont even know if I want to continue if im going to feel like this.

Still no relief! Finally, I took my Maxalt and low and behold the pain started to ease. I fell asleep thinking "Yes! Finally, the pain will be gone". I woke up from my nap and I'll be damned if my neck isn't just as stiff as before and my head is pounding. WTF! Is this a reaction to the Celexa?? How much longer will it take before the side effects go away?

I read a paper that Celexa helps vertigo. anyone experience this? I may have to get back on Celexa and not for Panic or Anxiety but for the vertigo that started 3 days ago.

I was sore yesterday and not today. I a total of 800mg of ibuprofen yesterday and massaged my legs and also used heat (all before bed). I read online that excess adrenaline in muscles (from anxiety) can cause soreness. Also was recommended to excercise daily. I hope this is what it will take. I'm trying to deal my new diagnosis and do not need this extra symptom, darn it :( The docs said lets not chase every symtom I have.

I think I do have anxiety everyday, it's just not as bad as it used to be. I was in bed for over a month, I think I was depressed also. I was reading about the exercise, I used to run 3 miles a day before my anxiety and now I can't even clean my house because it hurts so much, my arm, back, shoulder and chest and with the pain comes anxiety. Do you have any advise on how I could start up on my exercising without over doing it? I need to take off the 20lbs I put on!!

hello all i have been on 40mg celexa and .05 klonopin for a few months now. I feel that the ssri doesnt relly touch the anxiety ,and without the klonopin i would still be anxious! Does anyone get anxiety relief from there ssri alone? i know many people take 2 or more meds and I just wanted to know if im on the right track. any input would be great!

My appetite is/was the same as before I spiraled down 6 months ago. I also started thinking my leg aches and numb heels and a sign on something more serious (nerve disorder), I also got a few new anxiety symptoms this week (light twitching in my legs and warm sensation once this morning) I was relieved to find out that many people with anxiety suffer these weird sensations too.

The first (10 mg) was taken 28 hours ago and the second (10 mg) was taken 4 hours ago (24 hours apart). My pain and anxiety have increased enormously since then, and I suspect Celexa because it was the only thing that changed in my treatment or conditions. So I want to get off the drug ASAP. At this point, after only 2 dosages, can I just stop taking it (Cold Turkey), WITHOUT risking side effects? Or do I have to go through the long process of gradual elimination (weaning off)?
