Previous chronic problems: fibromyalgia ,  degenerative disc lower back.
Side Effects:  Intensified Hot Flashes, insomina, and chronic fibro , hip, back pain.
I was expecting these side effects and since I was already experiencing them for many years, the intensity was not expected.

The hot flashes are being treated by  black cohosh and Effexor taken morning and evening.  Reduction in frequency and intensity of hot Flashes.

I thank you ladies for confirming the side effects that I am experiencing.  I also have been having an increased loss of hair each day but that seems to be abating a bit!"
