I started this medication 4 days ago but this morning I woke up was doing my children breakfast when all of a sudden my whole body went really really hot and I felt as if I was going to pass out my heart rate was 110 it lasted 10 mins then about 20mins after that it happened again. I saw my Dr and he said it could be side effects to try and stay on but if I'm worried about the symptoms then stop taking it? But I'm been on it four days what will it be like if I come off or should I perserve??
