I feel the pain in my legs and torso and get extremely weak. I get these symptoms with all meds, supplements, etc. I have had this problem for 20 months. I had been on antidepressents for about 10 years when 20 months ago I started getting these symptoms. I eventually went off all drugs. We have been to several doctors and no one can help me. I have Gerd and depression, which I am currently trying to use green medicine for them. As a result I feel terrible all the time.

Brief Answer:
Start multivitamin supplements

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for the information.

The pain after medications seems non specific.

I would suspect the pain could be related to metabolism and the metabolites produces by the drugs. B vitamins are needed to detoxify these metabolites. Taking multivitamin supplements may help.
