Get Double Vision While Exercising Vigorously. On Lexapro Tapering Dose. Can I Discontinue Without Side Effects ?
I get double vision when I exercise vigorously. I am 67 and in reasonably good health with excellent BP. The double vision goes away shortly after I stop exercising, but sometimes I have a residual headache and general neck ache. I was on Lexapro 10mg for a couple of years and recently tapered off, but my MD says that I was on such a low dose, I wouldn't get any side effects from discontinuing it.

Hi
Thank for choosing HCM, exercise is really a good thing but vigorous one in your age of 67 is not advisable it may some time create a major problem, your double vision is of course due to vigorous exercise, looking to your age you better have a good instructer for exercise,, you are doing exercise then why are you taking "Lexaproa" it seems ridiculous stop,, it Have nice day
