Questions about symptoms

I'm not sure if anyone can relate to or answer this, but I am going to ask anyway. I went to the PDoc on Monday and she started me on Effexor XR 37.5 mg again along with decreasing my Paxil 10 mg for a week. After a week, I am to up my dosage of Effexor XR to 75 mg and take the Paxil 10 mg every other day for a week then stop the Paxil. The third week I am to increase my Effexor XR to 150 mg. She also gave me .5 mg Klonopin to take 3 times a day and 100 mg of Trazodone to take at night to sleep (since I am not sleeping so well).

Last night I was laying in bed and I got super cold and about a half hour later, I felt extremely hot all over my body, almost like my skin was burning...are those symptoms of anxiety as well...I have never experienced that before.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Mark,

Thanks for replying. After I thought about it, I am wondering if it is from having a head and chest cold...don't have a fever, but still, maybe it could've been from that. Last night was the first night I experienced that and I felt like total crap since I couldn't breathe out of my nose and whatnot...who knows!

I tend to get really hot and sweat during an anxiety attack. Not much of a burning sensation, just much too hot. If it continues, I would also recommend calling your pharmacist or the nurse line at your doctor's office.

Yeah, I get hot and sweaty too during a panic attack and sometimes just during general anxiety....but not in the way that OP described.

Thank you all for your words of encouragement. It really means a lot to me that you all take the time to read my posts and respond back.

Larry, you always make me feel so much better...you are a wise man and something about you comforts me.
