Hi Linda

I am on Sertraline and had many side effects for the first four weeks, but not the ones you mentioned. How long have you been taking them? It could be a mixture of side effects and anxiety because of the side effects, which would probably subside as time goes on, but I would check with your doctor if I were you just for reassurance.

You will find most support on the forum for Sertraline users under Medications - Sertraline. If you post on there you may find someone who has had similar experiences will respond.
