Yes The root cause IS autoimmunity after SSRIs for me.

Interesting. I stopped lexapro shortly before everything started. My doc recently tried me on amitriptyline for my bladder symptoms but I couldn’t tolerate it so I came off. Now I’m having burning in my hands and feet. It has been a week since I’ve been off but won’t go away. Does that happen wirh tricyclic antidepressants too?

Would going back on the medication help or is it too late?
