"at first remeron was amazing. felt so much better in a short period of time. after being on it approximately 6 weeks i began to develop horrible leg pain. random joint pain in elbows, hands, knees. my fingers also started to swell. as soon as i was off and out of my system these side effects went away. if not for the side effects i would still be on it. i&#039;ve just about run the line with these medicines and don&#039;t seem to tolerate any very well."
