Breathing difficulty

Hello everyone! :) just wanted to find out if anyone has had any breathing difficulty with Zoloft?
I am just at the end of my 3rd week, and in the last 2days I have been very short on breathing and find it hard to catch a deep breath! :( i have suffered from mild anxiety, and I do no that this is not anything to do with that.. I am a bit worried to keep continuing with this med! If anyone could give me any advise, or have had the same problem, I would appreciate any feed back! :)

Most side effects disappear with time. I had annoying yawning on Celexa almost every minute but suddenly one day it was gone.

Hi birdie0907
Thanks for your advise, I did call my doctor and he did say that he thinks it may not be the tablet, but not sure.. I am going to see him on Monday. Had so many ups and downs with side affects on this med, for three weeks.:(

You should call your pharmacist or doc if you think your med is causing breathing problems. It is not possible to diagnose from here.
" I do know that this is not anything to do with that." Actually anxiety can make you so fearful that a bunch of "symptoms" will show up constantly, so the breathing problem you think you have may just be your anxiety coupled with your fears that something is wrong. This is background info you can think about when you talk to the professional.
