"having felt sick for the better part of the last year, many side effects of pain in my neck due to 3 bulging discs,  i was recently hospitalized with heart palpitations but nothing seems to be wrong with my heart. my doctor thought i may be having depression due to all my physical pain. she started me on 25 mg of zoloft two weeks ago and increased it to 50 mg today.  i&#039;m feeling a positive change already. not dwelling on my feelings of pain and sickness.  i will continue zoloft as the side effects are minimal compared to the benefits"
