Hi all. I am over 2 months post op and before the surgery I quit taking my Effexor XR anxiety/depression medication b/c I knew I wouldn't be able to take it after surgery since it is extended release. I have put off going to my family doctor b/c I hate wasting a half a day in the dr's office, but I can put it off no longer. I can tell that I need my medication! Any suggestions from people who were previously taking Effexor? I liked it, no real side effects so I want something similar to that. Any suggestions before I go to the doctor, from pre surgery effexor users?
