Burrning Skin Sensation
Posted , 4 users are following.
Hi, I hope someone can help or has expereince of this. For the last 14 months I have been suffering from chest pains and after a trip to A&E in the New Year (all Ok), my GP put me on Fluoxetine. However, for the past 5/6 few days I have began to experience a burning skin sensation on my mainly my left thigh and/or lower leg.I have been on Fluoxetone before and never had this happen. I'm not sure if it is my anxiety or something else, but it causing me a lot of worry that is probably making the symptoms worse.
Since being on Fluoxetine my chest pain has gone. I don't understand it.
Thanks,
Stuart

I'm experiencing the issues simiar to you - fatigued muscle in my legs, joint pain/ache, twitching, warm skin sensations. Ive had it for about 2/3 weeks now and started after a trip to A&E for chest pain, I, like you am extremenly worried and start to panic when the symptoms occur and i feel anxious constantly. I did experince a similar episode about 10 years ago that took many months to sibside and was blamed on anxiety/stress/depression. I had CBT at the time, not that I believed it would work as I couldnt believe anxiety would cause all the symptoms.I also tried various medications. Have you had any tests or investigations? I had a blood test this week that came back normal.I'm also on 20mg Fluoxetine.
