Hello.
It would be hasty to blame the anti-depressant. Did you stop the anti-depressant suddenly ? And what was the anti-depressant ? Some anti-depressants, if discontinued suddenly, may give rise to some vague symptoms (unlike yours). Also it would help if you could mention why you were taking the anti-depressant.
Regards
Hi,
It seems that you are more anxious person.
The vagus nerve is the 10th cranial nerve that has the most extensive distribution in the body of all the cranial nerves, innervating structures as diverse as the external surface of the eardrum and internal organs of the abdomen.
Damage to one vagus nerve results in hoarseness and difficulty in swallowing and speaking. Injury to both nerves results in increased heart rate, paralysis of pharyngeal and laryngeal musculature, atonia of the esophagus and intestinal musculature, vomiting, and loss of visceral reflexes. Such a lesion is usually life-threatening, as paralysis of laryngeal muscles can result in asphyxiation.
It would be advisable to have an appointment with a physician and have an complete examination.
