Hi, I've been taking citalopram for about 8 months, and for the first three months I had no, problems. But then about three or four months ago I started having bouts of severe nausea. I would have symptoms of nausea, diarrhea, feeling like throwing up chills and shakes, going on sometimes for hours. The symptoms go on for one to seven days, and then all of a sudden I feel fine for a couple of days. Then it will all come back again.
I've been to see my doctor, who had me do a stool sample and a blood test, and finally she told me that there is nothing more she can do for me. Within the last couple of days my symptoms have gotten much worse and aren't going away at all.
I took another look at citalopram side effects and noticed all of my symptoms were listed. My doctor had me switch today to sertraline to see if it made a difference, but so far I'm still working my way off citalopram. Does anyone have any idea if these are side effects or what else is going on?
