Everything worse. Insomnia plus the burning in my chest first, then moved to my arms. Started feeling it in my head also. Horrible headaches and stomach upset. Why give someone something that will make your issues ten times worse? I have been on lexapro for 2 weeks so far. I am also taking Xanax to help me get over the hump until the lexapro kicks in. I also get this burning sensation for no reason at all. Sometimes it lasts 20 minutes followed by sweating. I am thinking it’s all part of the anxiety. I have never experienced anything like this so I feel your pain. It is very isolating. I have started lexapro 10mg i do have a feeling of burning sensation in my shoulders and arm follow by panic attack if i don’t let go of the fear. So my friend who is a pharmacist told me to start with 5mg for a week or 2 then increase the dose to 10mg. Its your body natural reaction to higher serotonin levels that your body needs time to adjust. Also what helps me is taking xanax right when i feel those side affects. It goes away after 1-3 weeks and you start feeling better. So yeah these meds you feel worse before you feel better. You are not alone I just started lexapro and I had the burning sensation in the back of my neck and my arms, got very intense last night. My doctor told me that if it is very uncomfortable I should stop taking the medication. So I have now stopped but the burning has not totally gone away yet. Anyone experienced shoulder and arm muscle pain (spasm) while on Lexapro? this is my third day on this Lexapro and I can't take the burning I went to the er because I also.thought I was having a heart attack. I I'm called the doctor this morning and told her to take .me off this medication. How long does it take to get out of my system Been feeling the same burning sensation all day today does
