Shaking leg...
You know when you hold your heel slightly off the floor and your knee shakes - since I've been taking Fluoxetine I've noticed I do this incessantly all the time, I dont notice I'm doing it but then when I do I don't really want to stop it cause within minutes I'll be doing it again - It's doing my head in, is it just a result of me transferring my anxiety? Or could it be something to do with the Fluoxetine?
Thanks in advance! :-)

Re: Shaking leg...
It's been.... 11 days - but I can't tell you how long the leg thing has been happening, I only know that i've only noticed it over the past week.

I'm not any medical expert hun but it's a huge possibility that it's a side effect from your medication. The good thing with that though is, they don't last long and will probably dissapear before you know it.

Re: Shaking leg...
i used to do it occasionally funny tho that i'm on this and my sister is too and ever since were banished to sit on a sofa together so our shaking legs don't annoy everyone else, nobody ever said anything before that

Re: Shaking leg...
I have just started taking Fluoxetine and this happens to me all the time, people look at me funny cos my chair always shakes but when I realise I'm doing it I stop, then I do something else and my leg does it again.. weird! I think it's a side effect, hopefully it will die down, but we can look cool for a bit longer with the shaking legs.. :)

Brilliant, my friends keep pouncing on my leg like cats at the moment trying to make it stop moving - i cant help it!
Although i have noticed it has faded as my condition has improved... See how it goes!
