Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have read your query and understand your concern,however I would like to assure you that these symptoms and side effects are going to be very short lived and would go away in next couple of days.
Since you have taken nortryptalline for only 2 days,side effects won't last long.
Since you have already stopped using it,there is no need for any medical assistance.
I hope it helps however you are most welcome to revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
