Many symptoms

[Clmder]

My symptoms are as follows
Hives on back, left arm & armpit, neck and face
Nausea
Dizziness
Soft stools
Occasional sweatiness, kind of like a hot flash
Headache
Crying easily
I am 53 y.o. Female, post menopausal, no menses for last 5 years
I have taken the following meds since 1999 for a brain injury following car accident
In a.m. 300 mg neurontin, 75mg Effexor X-ray, 450 mg Wellbutrin XML
In p.m. 600mg neurontin
I also take for general health Centrum for women over 50 and a baby aspirin for family history of heart problems
I also take daily for hot flashes, tri-omega, flax and 2000 mg evening primrose, and flash fighters, a combo of **** quai, black cohosh,licorice, vitex and soy isoflavanoids.

The above symptoms started 2 weeks ago, hives were treated w/ antihistamines otherwise I have little relief.  I do feel better for about 30-60min after eating and then the nausea, shaking, dizziness all come back.  My doctor recently retired and I have an appt. with a new one on the 24th.  The first appt. I could get after calling 5 different doctors offices. All were busy with the flu season.  BTW I did have my flu shot awhile ago, so that's not it.

Viral infections may be responsible for your flu-like symptoms, including the hives. Your flu shot is not guarranteed to work against all strains of the flu.
The flu shot targets the most LIKELY strains.

You may have malabsorption issues presently, interfering with the
proper metabolism and assimilation of the active chemicals in Effexor
(most likely) leading to crying easily and the same thing for your other supplements and meds leading to experiencing symptoms consistent with the condition you are taking them for.

I hope this helps.
Take care and speedy recovery!
