Hello! I have been on Sertraline for 12 weeks now and for the last 4 weeks I have had a tension/neck ache at different degree's. They are not really ouchy ouchy ones. more like I have a heavy book on top of my head all the time.

I was put on Sertraline for G.A.D. and my mood has certainly improved along with my appetite so am gaining weight!

Can anyone else identify with this please?

Love Cazz.
