24 year old female, had nausea for the past two weeks, accompanied by feeling slightly dazed and uneasy/unsteady. Currently on second period since last sexual encounter. Not sleeping very well. Nausea is affecting my everyday life, increasing after eating, so have been limiting food intake. Today I was extremely shaky, ate lunch and felt immediately sick, which lasted about 2 hours. Had dinner and am now feeling sick to the point of needing to induce vomiting. I have been on 150 mg of venlafaxine for 4 years.

I hope you are in touch with the doctor who has started Venlafaxine. If not stop it immediately. Venlafaxine can provoke dose-dependent blood pressure elevation, sometimes requiring treatment discontinuation.A cohort study in about 50 elderly patients and analysis of several hundred reported suicide attempts by venlafaxine overdose demonstrated a risk of QT interval prolongation, which can lead to torsades de pointes, an unusual and potentially fatal type of ventricular tachycardia. Large British and Danish cohort studies found no increased risk of sudden cardiac death with venlafaxine. You mean that you have mensturated twice since the last sexual excounter so that cannot be the cause of your complaint. Lack of sleep, improper meal and sleep timings, cervical spondylosis, visual or auditory causes are some of the other diagnosis to be ruled out. For further evaluation and treatment consult online in private.
