Can Effexor And Mood Stabilizers Cause Weakness And Shaky Feeling In Arm?
Over the last 3 weeks Ive hand random twitching in the index finger of my right hand and left thumb. My arms have started feeling week and shaky. Like Ive been weight training all day without a break. I ve also noticed a lot of clumsiness in picking things up or holding, reaching for things. At the end of the day Im rather quite exhausted, Ive been noticing that when I first wake up I feel good but withing an hour Im back to where I was. I am taking Effexor and Mood Stabilizers and I don t know if they effect the nervous system at all.
Kindly discuss the need of dose adjustment of the same with your treating doc for best results and control shaky arms and weakness. Till that time, do consume more liquids to maintain hydration.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
