I saw that you had mentioned heart palpitations. Don’t I know it is tough to get in with Doctors. I am in Florida and the Doctos become more scarce. Do not beat yourself up about the higher dose of Effexor. In reality, the condition of anxiety and depression can cause cardiac issues. I found out yesterday from a cardiologist that I am in AFIB now. My resting heart rate is often over 100 bpm. And there is nothing I can do about it right now. It is another month to see the AFIB specialist. So the cardiologist could not treat it , they referred me. So the cardiologists acted almost like a General Practitioner.
Try not to panic but I know that is very difficult to do because it is part of the condition.
I hope you start feeling better soon. Believe me, I know how this feels; hopeless. But we need to keep the faith. When suffering so greatly, it is difficult to be patient. But in reality, all of this is going to take time.
So I will pray for you and your health and for peace and patience in this time of severe trial.
