Hi all, hoping to get a bit of advice or similar experiences.

I went on zoloft back I February for health anxiety, depression etc.

The side effects where pretty bad and a lot of GI trouble.

So I switched directly to fluoxetine/prozac just over 4 weeks ago.

The first week of switching I felt great! everything felt better than normal!

then around the 12th day I started with some upset stomach again for a few days. that seemed to ease off and I got achey legs and just general all round fatigue.

This seemed to wax and wane over the last few weeks.

So now being day 30 I was kind of expecting the diahreaa etc to be gone. But i woke up today and its still here lol..has anyone else had a similar experience and can offer any advice?

thanks

p
