I started on Lexapro two weeks ago. I was taking Xanax for anxiety but my doctor wanted to give Lexapro a try. I too am feeling nausea and sweating,so I started taking it at night and I'm doing much better.
Along with anxiety, my nuerologist has also said that I have "Trigeminal Neuralgia" My symptoms started out as a numbness only on the right side of my face and down my right arm. At times the numbness gets so bad that it feels like small electical shocks. I get them above my right ear also. At one time, the bottom right side of my lip twitched for two weeks. My doctor gave me Trileptal to take and the symptoms got better. I've been off the Trileptal for about six weeks now, but my symptoms are starting to come back. I'll have to call and check with my doctor and make sure that I can take the Lexapro and Trileptal together.
