med increase and nausea...

I know it is almost certainly my med increase but I just need some reassurance I guess. I started taking the generic Paxil 20mg on Saturday, up from my Paxil 12.5mg time release dose. Since then I have had mild to moderate upset tummy. Just feel kind of queasy. I was sure it had to be from the new med so I haven't been too upset by it. Also I have been more tired than usual since yesterday which I also have attributed to the med and not worried. I can't say I am really worried now except that the nausea is pretty bad right now. I keep telling myself it is the med and it will go away in a day or two. My problem is, I have a hard time now telling the difference between anxiety nausea, med nausea or a flu bug!!! My anxiety has been a bit up since I started the new med and I know that is normal too. Please give me some reassurance that this is all normal!! Thanks guys!!! Hugs, Erin
