Heavy feeling in head and body

Guest · Guest

Hey everyone, for the past week I have been experiencing the worst feeling ever. My whole body is heavy. It is like my arms and legs weigh 100 lbs. My muscles are tight and sometimes achy all over my body, especially my hands, arms, and legs. I have also been having alot of pressure in my head, specifically in the front part of my head. The only thing that helps me feel better is laying down or sleeping. I feel somewhat normal for about 30 minutes after I wake up, but then it all starts again. I feel fairly normal if I am laying down, but as soon as I get up for a few minutes it all starts again.

I was on Zoloft for about 3 months, but stopped taking it about a month ago. For the first week or so after stopping it (abruptly), I felt the electric zaps that many people report after stopping Zoloft. But those went away after a couple weeks. I don't see how this could be withdrawal from Zoloft ater a month of stopping. I was also on Xanax, but stopped taking it (abruptly) about 2 1/2 weeks ago.

Any ideas as to what might be going on?

My daughter is going through the same type of thing - we think she may have celiac disease - typically you have abdominal problems, but the more I read about it I see this definately does not have to be the case - I wuld definately read about it and get checked if I were you.

I have been feeling the same way over the last couple of days. I feel like I cant hold myself up or something. I dont know what is going on. Have you found out what was wrong?
