How long did you take to do the step-down? Sometimes it takes longer than a couple of weeks, which is why I'm scared to go off Effexor. But, if you continue to have the dizzy feeling, contact your doctor. Peace of mind makes a big difference. One of the unfortunate things about this disease is you can never again take a "different" feeling for granted. Congratulations on the normal CA 125. Please come back and let us know how you progress.
My condolences to you on the loss of your sister-in-law.

It sounds just like antidepressant withdrawal. That was my worst symptom when I quit taking Cymbalta. I also tried to taper down the dose the but dizziness lasted for months. It did get better with time. Hang in there!
