In my case, I was low in vit. B12 but nobody ever tested for that , they gave me antidepressants.I think I was a guinea pig for the big pharma for a few years, and maybe I'm paying for that now. Stop taking it if it makes you worse instead of better and don't mess with your nervous system, its too dangerous.

Thanks for your reply. I have never been diagnosed with PN - it's just that I seem particularly susceptible to having that tingling, etc.. in hands and sometimes feet. I have had nerve conduction tests, brain scans, tested for Srogren's disease (sp?) and all were negative. I do have slightly elevated ANA titers (1:80) but the rheumatologist seemed to think I was okay after all testing was okay.
I have stopped the Zoloft and will NEVER go back on an antidepressant again. It isn't worth it for me.
