Long term side effects from wellbutrin or zyban

[myooshka]

Has anyone had long term side effects from Wellbutrin or Zyban? I have had long term neurological problems that seemed to be triggered by a reaction to wellbutrin. I was wondering if others have experienced any problems from either of these drugs. Please contact me and let me know. I am suffering from muscle wasting, muscle twitching, severe memory problems and I am 32 years old. No doctor nor specialist can figure out what is causing my decline in health. I had severe hand pain and swelling from wellbutrin as well as chronic head pressure and then I started having the above problems. Please let me know if anyone has had this type of problem or any other health problems they feel may be from these drugs, thanks, Mya

I have been noticing the last 3 years that I am getting slight tremors from my tongue down to my legs.  I had a nerve conduction test run because I was getting paranoid about these symptoms.  They are getting increasingly worse and recently I have been thinking it may be the long term affect of the Wellbutrin. I have been on it for 11 years. Think it's time my Dr and I have a come to Jesus meeting and atart weening me off.

Did you ever figure it out?  I've been on Wellbutrin for about 16 months and have recently experienced lots of spasms all over my body.  It is scary s so many other bad diseases have that same symptom.

My daughter took Wellbutrin at about 12 years old. She took it for about two years and stopped. Started it again when she was about 25. Since starting this medication she has had Migrane headaches. Been diagnosed with a stomach emptying disease (gastric Pyresis) a blood pressure disorder called POTS disease. (In ability to maintain blood pressure) Anxiety, Muscle atrophy and now some rare form of MS!! Now the docs are suggesting an autoimmune disorder from a mutant gene. She was perfectly healthy until she began taking this medication!! We are headed to the mayo clinic in February and I am taking this information with me!

Have doctors check for dystonia and Akasthesia.  Antipsychotic meds can cause these things.  Maybe Wellbutrin changed her brain chemistry.  Check tardive dyskinesia
