Yes I had the same and took a month and a half to go away. Nothing to worry about. Hope this helps :)

Thank you! But how in the world did you tolerate that for a month and a half? It's awful! Bless you.

Noticed started with Lexapro. Tolerated by assuming its gonna happen when i urinate and it often happened. If it took longer I would change meds or do something. But in even less than, a month and a half, it was gone forever! Stay blessed and I hope this helps :)
