I think I better go off the Paxil if it causes brain tumors or breast cancer, I should not of googled this, I called the Doctor and my son had a terrible time in school today, I am having a bad panic attack, I fear a tumor and my son was almost beaten up today. Please send prayers. Debbie.

Paxil cannot cause tumors or strokes can it? I wish I could drain this fear from my body. I am praying for a miracle. Deb.

I wish I knew if these symptoms are from the Paxil, anxiety, or a brain tumor!! My gut instinct is to go off the Paxil, for some reason I think its going to kill me or I am going to die from it, isn't that terrible to think the medicine that is supposed to help you will kill you??!! What a horrible thought. Can Paxil cause poor circulation or blood clots or strokes or tumors? I am so confused what to do, my nurse if out till MOnday. Please any advice to calm me and please send prayers. God bless, Debbie.

Dear Gang, As everyone knows I am taking the Paxil and trying to stay positive and get somewhat well. The last few days, and this will sound strange, I have been "hearing songs in my head" different ones, like yesterday it was "Home Sweet Home" by Motley Crue, and today its "Bleed to Love her" by Stevie Nicks" that does not happen to me at all on a regular basis. My question is this a good sign?? Like the depression is lifting? or is it a bad sign like a brain tumor or something? I know its a werid question. I am still having the headaches, dizziness, and blurred vision and I notice my legs fall asleep alot lately, along with the little "zaps" shocks in the face of course I am scared, I dont know if its the Paxil or what? My neck is a little stiff, can that cause headaches and dizziness if you wretch your neck sleeping? I may get my eyes checked I have heard needing glasses can cause vision and dizziness. I went to the Doctor about this two days ago and he did not have an answer. I do no want to take the Paxil if its causing this, my nurse said to keep taking it it will help and the side efffects will ease, but its been almost 3 weeks! THese songs in my head concern me, I think "oh GOd not a tumor in the brain" How I wish I could quit the medicine and just be "normal" again, today is my husbands birthday and I do NOT want to ruin it, I am going to really really try to be healthy today. Any advice about my symptoms would be very welcome. Thank you all so much, God bless, Debbie.
