Effexor and Wellbutrin

I've been on 150mg of Effexor XR and 300mg of Wellbutrin for maybe 9 months now. I suddenly started feeling sick after taking the two together. 2-3 hours after taking the two I get the "zapping" feeling some people describe, my heart rate increases (as high as 120), sometimes I feel nauseous, I have trouble focusing, and I generally feel sick. This has been getting worse over the last 2 months. I went to the ER the other day because I felt so bad and my heart rate was scaring me. Everything was normal, including my EKG. For a long time adding the Wellbutrin after taking Effexor for several months helped a tun and I was feeling great. The Wellbutrin decreased some side effects of the Effexor too. I don't know why things have changed.

I have no insurance right now. I think my symptoms are related to the medications, but I don't know because the symptoms came on so suddenly.

I am on Effexor right now and the only thing that I have noticed is sweating and my sleep patterns.  However, I was on Wellbutrin last year for some time and I experienced a lot of your symptoms.  I felt like I was having major anxiety attacks or like I was going to pass out.  I don't know why you are experiencing all of this right now as opposed to closer to when you started the two meds, but I would get it checked out.

Have you tried Celexa? If you read my post to gwmclean a few minutes ago you will see I could talk all day about how it changed my life. I had some of the wellbutrin panic effects you mention too.
