Dizziness with 75mg increase

Has anyone suffered from extreme dizziness when their dose is increased to 75mg. I understand this could be due to the increase (i'm five days in), does this go away? How long do the side effect take to go away after an increase?

Thank you.

      Yes it's a side effect I hope it disappears 😩 I've got indigestion too that's making me uncomfortable and anxious x

      My doctor told me I wouldn't receive any side effects with the increase, but others most certainly have. I wonder if there is a time scale like 2-3 weeks of side effects before it starts to settle.

      I do hope your indigestion gets better soon. It must be horrible to feel dizzy and have stomach issues.xx
