I have been a lurker for a long time, and I was just wondering if anyone has ever experienced a feeling of neck tightness? Nothing to do with breathing, I can breath fine but the skin/muscles in my neck feel kind of tight and I can't find info about that anywhere as a symptom of phen. even though my skin feels like its tight, I feel it and its actually kinda the opposite lol any input would be greatly appriciated! Thanks!

I have been on Phentermine for nearly 6 weeks now and haven't experienced neck tightness.

Weird! My best friend started phen about 7 weeks ago and just asked me the other day if I had seen any posts about neck tightness. She has complained that her neck and shoulders feel tight. Could certainly be the phen.

I had neck tightness on the left side while I was on phen. I didn't notice anyone saying they had this symptom so I thought maybe I had pulled a muscle or something.

My first week on phen I felt as if my muscles were tight in the back of my neck, shoulders and between my shoulders. I asked a friend of mine and she thought maybe I wasnt getting enough water intake and my muscles were tightening due to the lack of fluid. I upped my water intake by 8-10 oz a day, and it slowly went away... I havent noticed the tightness come back on the days that I dont get all my water oz in - but maybe it was just my body getting used to the change in diet?
I havent heard of anyone else haivng this side effect, so its nice to know I wasnt crazy! LOL!

well I am relieved I am not the only one, strange thing is is that it kind of feels like it goes up to the ear area, and my shoulders dont get tight but my pectorial muscles do, they flex extremely easily with no effort at all, don't know what thats about. I do think its important for anyone to say any symptoms they have though, because there are A LOT of side effects that are NOT listed as a side effect but many of us have, I have another but I will start another thread for that one, so far, no one has had the same symptom but I KNOW I can't be the only one that has some different, unlisted side effects lol

I also catch myself clinching my teeth - not really grinding my teeth - but more like just bitting down really hard, and I dont notice that I do it until I go to open my mouth to talk or eat/drink and i realise Ive been clinching.

Some mentioned the other day cheek biting (Cassandra i think).. ive caught myself lip bitting on the inside..
