Hi all does anyone have any advice for brain pain zaps relief caused by venlafaxine thanyou
I've been taking omega3 daily. I've read from a number of people that it helps. I've been tapering from 75mg and am down to 14mg now. I started taking it before I started my taper. I haven't had any brain zaps. I'm not sure if I would have had it without the omega3, but since something is working, I'm going to continue taking it through the end of the taper.
Sorry for this negativity - but it's now 15 years (or will be early July this year) since I came off Venlafaxine - and although 90% or more has gone, it can still happen. I hope and trust yours is a batter experience,
Philip
Thanyou for sharing that, Do you think tinned tuna or salmon would have the same affect as capsula
Thankyou for your reply, But after 16 year's of brain zaps at night has now turnned to constant noise in my head day and night for the last 22 month's , Iam just looking for any type of pain relief, other than PHARMA
I'm not sure. I'm taking 1200mg per day. I also take a probiotic.
Are you tapering off right now?
Yes at the moment . wondering if any certain food's that might help
This could well be tinnitus - I have this too, since about 2008. I can't say there's a connection with taking Ven - but overall I just live with it.
I don't think is is tinnitus and have been to a audiologist ,This is coming from my brain
Does it feel at its worst the more tired you are? This is what I find (the zapping/dizziness part of it)?
Yes more zap's when tired
