My father was having problems with High Blood Pressure, but it was not something he could control with diet alone. His doctor suggested effexor, but he toped. I am scared now because his not taking any medication now for HBP. He said he has tingling from effexor. I wonder if anyone else has had this problem.

I have been on Effexor for one year with Dose 75mg per day for HBP. I am not taking any medication now and I am ok. I was depressed due to a head injury although I feel great now but it took a while. I put on weight 15lbs, noticed a little dizziness sometimes, but nothing frightening.
