I was on this for about 4 years (50mg) but after finding out i had cancer last year i asked for a higher dose, my g.p. said there wasn't a higher dose???? so changed me to an anti depressant that did exactly the same as the one i was on but i could take a higher dose, i didnt even need to come off my original anti depressant, just did a straight swap with no side effects, lovely..... but now ive been having problems with my heart. My heart is beating way to fast constantly, and i have lots of ectopic heart beats and palpitations, i have spent a week in hospital for this and they have found numerous faults with my heart???/ I am now on 2 heart meds for the rest of my flaming life, but i am still very breathless and tired all the time. They dr's have just put this heart damage down to my chemotherapy, but who knows now if it is down to this drug??
