my cholesterol went up 50 points to 245 in
just 1 year. My ldl was always good until
this year. my sister who is also on Effexor XR noticed her cholesterol also increased.
as a result I am being weaned off it.
I also have had sweating problems - my
sister's is worse & I heard on the news
that Effexor XR eliminates REM sleep,
which is why I am always tired. I have been
on Effexor XR for 3 years.
