Celexa; is tickling an adverse reaction?

Hi,

Paxil 1 mg for 2 weeks. Doc increased to 20 mg. I had to stop because it is tickling so bad inside my body.

Now, Celexa 10mg every morning. It feels good the 1st week. Start tickling from the second week, especially night time. Areas : left shoulder, base of the neck, sometimes left part of the face, sometimes it goes down in my body. 2 days ago, it was so intense, I almost vomit. I went to ER, they could not find anything wrong.

Is it anxiety or medication adverse side effects?

Thanks.

It could be both. The Celexa and Paxil may cause anxiety which could be triggering these tickling sensations in your body.
