"my doctor put me on this medication a little over two weeks ago. i realize it might be still too early - it typically takes a month for a medication to take total effect. i have found a reduction in anxiety. but, have read in the posts that people experience joint pain and sweats. today, i did a burpee in my workout and i feel that i pulled a hip flexor muscle. i didn&#039;t even think that it could be related to this med until i read these posts. i would really be interested to know why if this is true it happens. its weird. i am in really good shape but am a 49 year old woman and am pre-menopausal, however, the severe sweats started to happen around the same time as starting the med."
