Ask a Doctor and Get an Answer to Your Medical Question ASAP
Hello and thanks for your question. I’d be pleased to assist you. Kindly answer following questions for further advice:
Age? Male or female?
Past medical history?
Any medicines using?
Thanks
So you developed these symptoms after starting Sertraline or had them before
???
I would suggest these symptoms are indicating health anxiety only
I would suggest continue medicines as they usually would take up to 4 weeks to show any benefits
if after 4 weeks you still feel no benefit then better increasing the dose initially to see any difference in response and side effects
The only features are tingling and numbness you are having which could occur with sertraline but usually resolve in few weeks
head pressure and headaches you had them before so not related to sertraline
did you had any brain scan??
If CT scan would be negative at least you would be on the safe side not having anything dangerous
then just sertraline dose titration would be helpful
From my point of view your symptoms are most likely anxiety and stress related
however scan would be advised to confirm it
Do you have any further questions???
I am still here
Please do let me know if you have any further questions I would be happy to answer
Best of luck
