OK, another bad night, heartbeat is just throbbing like mad, so I thought “Well, let’s see if this is something from the Paxil that’ll go away. . .”
Sure enough, I get onto http://www.paxilprogress.org, and sure enough, there’s my symptoms. On top of that, it looks like Paxil can cause or worsen mitral valve prolapse – a problem my mother has, which means it’s a definite possibility for me. I also found out that I need to almost triple the amount of magnesium I’m taking in order to alleviate the problem. I know I bitched about the attitudes of some people at the beginning of my withdrawal, but they really do have a lot of good information, and are probably the most valuable resource for people on, or getting off of, Paxil that I’ve found on the Internet.
