  ...Just so you know, I have a friend who is a primary care physician who is aware of the side effects of Cymbalta . Along with the zaps came a lot of itching to which I've scratched myself to the point of bleeding on several parts of my body. He stopped taking it two days ago and now he is almost too dizzy to walk and has had terrible diarrhea. Now I found your site and read every blog, and I am so angry I could spit nails. He did tell me to stop taking my Amitriptyline (which I only took at night at the small dose of 12.

I did not realize how hard weaning off would be.

  ...Hi Suzanne, You can file an adverse-event report yourself, but I think they need confirmation from your doc for a serious adverse eventnot sure. This web site has answered a lot of questions for me. An antiarrhythmic such as flecainide (Tambocor) or propafenone (Rythmol) etc. God, I hope NO-ONE ever takes cymbalta it is the DEVIL'S drug. I would look elsewhere online to have a more balanced perspective; definitely don't rely just on this website. Can anyone recommend ANYTHING, but NOT a prescription ! I took a dose of Cymbalta last night by mistake. I am upset that my doctor so casually prescribed me such drug without even saying a single word. Have has a severe headache since I dropped to 30 ml. In some ways, I think the depression I experienced when I was younger has subsided, but given way to a more specific feel of anxiety, due, I believe, to prolonged exposure to real life stress. Then, after I told him for the 24898587th time, he sent me to a cardiologist. I am speaking in terms of the worst case scenario, but encourage you to try to remain as positive as possible. Depression long gone, was prescribed for the neuropathic pain although not diabetic. I have gained 38 pounds in the last two years, which makes me truly "depressed" about my appearance. I was having feelings of extreme happiness and it would switch to extreme anger. For the past four days, he has been having violent mood swings, headaches, nausea, brain zaps, has blacked out a couple of times, and basically feels like he is losing his mind. And for the first time in my life, cymbalta combined with lamictal, I felt like my life had been saved. The past two nights I have had severe night sweats and tonight I can't sleep because I am so angry that I want to get up throw things or punch the wall to relieve some of this anger I feel trapped in me. But weening myself off that was hell, and I'm scared to death that Cymbalta is going to be even worse!! I had terrible head-flickering things, that I compared to probably small seizures that would occur. I have notice that the medicine works right away unlike all the other meds that I have taken in the past. I am tired of the side effects, mostly intestinal. I was started at 30mg/day and increased to 60 mg/day after two weeks. She seems to be taking a stand and being angry where she normally even with out medication she is very passive and going along with the flow. I thought that i have felt better at some point in the last month. I've just tried heavy-duty dieting and am not losing anything. The only side effect while on Cymbalta has been weight gain - about 25 pounds. -ANYWAYS I HAVENT HAD A DRINK OR A LINE IN 32 DAYS!! MY OBSESSION TO USE COCAINE IS GONE!!!!! THIS IS INCREDIBLE! I FEEL SO GOOD. And even if it does work, god help you getting off. ...

  ...I just started taking Cymbalta (20mg/twice per day) for depression and anxiety about 3 days ago. -anony During the two-plus years that I had been taking 60 mg, once-a-day, of Cymbalta, my personality changed for the absolute WORST and I ended up walking out on “the love of my lifeâ€�; requesting and receiving long-term disability from a job I truly loved; and moving to another state where I had no friends or family so that I could be “aloneâ€� to deal the raging, impatient person I had become. You must wait at least 14 days after stop of a MAOI before you can take Cymbalta. Have any other women had these pains Also, I am having more hot flashes and constipation. It is honest input for those people who might have serious reasons to choose carefully before using this med. Ive only been on it about a month, 30mg one week and 60mg for three. Having someone supportive stay with you is the number one most important thing you can do. I even starting making my own "capsules". I personally am going speak very LOUDLY about how EVIL this drug was,is and will be. levels were 38 and 45! I knew that Cymbalta was relatively new. Right now, I'm only on Trileptal, Prozac, and Adderall. ...

  ...I am sorry so many people have had such negative effects with this drug. I would try to talk to your doctor about a different med. First of all, no you shouldn't have any withdrawl symptons after only two days of taking cymbalta. In more of you observing for changes of your own symptoms, your family or others caregivers should be alert with the changes of your mood or symptoms. Whats better, not taking the meds and killing yourself or taking meds that can be the best damn thing thing that ever happened to you I ♥ Cymbalta forever = Dont mess. I am just not used to not being on an emotional rollercoaster, make sense The cymbalta has helped with my body pain, and I usually sweat but I haven't at all today since taking cymbalta. Now, if this paper, that I'm sure was approved by the drug company, says 10 weeks of side effects after going off cymbalta, how much is it really !! ...

  ...I went 3 days without the Cymbalta and now am wishing I didn't take it last night. I would not suggest this to anyone else, especially if you are switching from another medication. I'm praying to god the symptoms are gone soon! All of this from 1 30 MG DOSE. I just want to share my horrible experince trying to detox cymbalta. I had extreme night terrors, heavey sweating, intermittent feelings that bugs were crawling on me, intermittent brain zaps. Yes, I get very vivid dreams and a little "buzzy" in my body if I sleep in too late on Saturday. So far,i havent had such bad symptoms as some people here. Then I began to feel like I was on speed. Cymbalta withdrawal Bilirubin Increased - Bilirubin is a waste product of the breakdown of old blood cells. I can't concentrate, I don't want to be around anyone, and I get these waves of feeling like I'm drunk. Another thing that bothered me, well a lot, was I was unable to orgasm. Doc says the cymbalta will help with withdrawls, anxiety, mood swings. question: does anybody know how long will take those symptoms of stomach ache to wear off Thanks ...

  ...I have been using cymbalta for over a year and it has worked a miracle for me. " So she gave me Cymbalta 30 mg for a month, bumped me to 60 mg for two weeks and now I am on my 6th day of 90 mg. Pull yourselves up by your boot straps, eat healthy and deal with the side effects. The electric shocksI have tried to explain them to my husband and when I start talking I just shut up because deep down inside I thinkhow am I going to explain this weird feelingnow I know it IS real. Zoloft sometimes made me feel disconnected from the world and my emtions, as if there was a film or fog between me & my sense of reality. The entries I've read tonight are a Godsend! I am on day 4 of being cymbalta free and experiencing so many of the symptoms listed. But these have all been mild and tolerable. My head was messed up so bad, that I thought I was going to have a seizure, I had a stiff neck, my vision blurred and I was so apathetic that I almost didn't care that I culdn't get out of bed or had any desire to even look at food. I WENT ONTO THE CYMBALTA WEBSITE AND FOUND SIDE EFFECTS AND LO AND BEHOLD THERE ARE ABOUT 400 OTHER PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT HAVE MADE ME FEEL SO MUCH BETTER BY POSTING YOUR THOUGHTS AND KNOWING I AM NOT ALONE AND THERE IS AN END TO THIS MISERY. ...

  ...Apparently, Eli Lilly and Company knows this. You will notice that over the course of a short time you will have them nearly bitten in half. I lost my insurance and could not afford to remain on the medication. I have been on Cymbalta, 60 mg, for over 2 years. People, it's like you just want to see your gripe in print. Your an adult now, time to make your own decisions. I wish I had, but when you are depressed you want to feel better so you take the meds. now that i've finally thought to be curious about the cymbalta, i am overcome by what i've found out here on the webother people who feel like i do.

I took Prozac 100mg and it helped me not at all.

I would sit in my chair all day long and veg.

  ...I tweak my dosage to get the optimal results. it has worked pretty well for depression BUT my mind cannot stop racing, i am totally wired, major nervousness and edgey and its almost impossible to sleep without sleeping pills.

I have also noticed a decrease in my appetite.

  ...I have been suffering with major depression since 15. I am looking forward to seeing how this medicine will help the depression, my irritable bowel syndrome, fibromyalgia and anxiety. I haven't noticed any change in my mood but I have been told that I shouldn't yet at this point. If you are taking it in the morning it will cause sleepiness. I did like others and made my own capsules. Does anyone know how long these symptoms last, I really need to see a light at the end of the tunnel. had huge success with remeron in past except for weight gain and hoping cymbalta will offset it. Which is too bad, because the medicine, although pricey, seemed to be working. This has been my internal dialog for three weeks now. I'm on my third day at 30mg but after reading all this I'm wondering if I should stop. This drug should be taken off the market and, IMHO, its manufacturer should be made to compensate all of those suffering from its horrific side effects. I can't believe how quickly and inappropriately, I was rx cymbalta with no follow appt for 6 wks! We all need to be responsible and educated about the healthcare decision we make for ourselves and our family. , week 2- 40 mg, Week 3- 30 mg, week 4- 20 mg, and week 5- 10 mg. They are not poison unless you are taking them when you don't need them. I really wonder if doctors know anything about the meds they give us He wants me to go the hosp for an MRI of my head if the dizzy spells do not subside. As I read all of the comments I started to get very nervous and debated whether or not I should even try Cymbalta. Since being on this for just a short period of time I have already started to lose weight. im still having bad panic attacks and seizures etc. Lexapro made me too lethargic within first week, so Dr. I finally asked my daughter to bring all of my medicine and realized that in a very short period of time after taking my meds that I was feeling fine. Now I'm looking for a job so that I won't lose my house because my husband didn't have life insurance or credit life. So is it the Cymbalta or the years of an antihistamin. I figure it will take another couple of weeks to get it out of my system, but it's worth it. Oh, I dreamed my husband took my sister to Germany and not me. ...

  ...This is day 2 of no Cymbalta and my brain hurts. 5 years: Cymbalta (60 mg daily) worked very well in alleviating my depression and anxiety, and I felt more like "myself" that I had on the Zoloft. THIS PAST DECEMBER I DECIDED I HAD HAD ENOUGH, AND ARMED WITH NOTHING BUT SHEER DETERMINATION, STARTED WEANING MYSELF OFF. I have missed the occasional dose with absolutely no problems. I am being treated by a dermatologist for the condition. Worked for 3 weeks then it just stopped. Hopefully I don't have enough in my system to suffer the side effects I read about here. After I came to an emotional crisis point, I sought medical help and started with 30 mg Cymbalta for 2 weeks.

I can take Tylenol or Motrin for a headache.

  ...I sometimes supplement with Lexapro 20mg if my depression or anxiety increases for more than a couple of weeks. Thanks for all your experiences here with Cymbalta I will NEVER take it! Many of you have asked if there is a light at the end of the Cymbalta tunnel and I am here to tell you, yes there is. I have dizziness to the point that I am afraid to drive, nausea, uncontrollable irritability towards everyone, thoughts of worthlessness, anger and the brain zaps that others have already referred to. I just want to be happy again and not rampage around my house with my family quivering in fear, if Cymbalta can do that, I can take a few (minor) side effects. If I stop taking this now, will I have any withdrawal symptoms I will call my Dr. and have decided to try to wean myself off. The hand had a center core which grew as I looked onthe swelling was painful and looked "alien-like. I started Cymbalta 4 weeks ago, so far the side effects I have are sweating, off and on, so I am getting chills too, headaches, and heart palpatations. Does this scare you It should, because I am dead serious about this (no pun intended). So, they determined it was from the side effects of Cymbalta. The social anxiety is still there, but honestly unless you want to be a drugged up zombie who has no emotions I would reccommend counciling and learning how to relax when with people or in public. I finally took a 5mg capsule (which I made myself by counting the little white beads) and within a few hours, the dizziness started to subside and I'm not crying anymore. Unfortunately, my depression would return after 6 months to a year so I would be prescribed something different. I'm glad this drug works for some, but I just wish I'd known more about it before I began taking it. I have also decided to check into acupucture in an effort to try and cure the chemical imbalance in my brain permantely. I don't know if it has been a year or not. I take Lunesta for on going insomnia, Lorazepam on rare occasion and at present am taking 60mg Cymbalta. Wild stuff! Also, my hair is falling out.

My boyfriend calls me the "devil's daughter".

  ...I took Cymbalta for 6 weeks with NO beginning (the stated "normal") side effects. I was "speeding" the whole time, but felt no relief or, for that matter, a single positive effect.

you've researched doctors, medications, treatment.

  ...Taking 30 mg for chronic back pain, and depression. My joints ache and my hands have and off and on tingling sensation in them.

I'm on day 5 of the dosage split and feel fine.

  ...I just started Cymbalta recently for anxiety, withdrawal and joint pain. I went to the doctor today for the first time to discuss my on going anxiety issue and depression, mostly about the anxiety though. My husband and I haven't had an argument since I started taking it. Women in menopause will sometimes experience this.

Im not even complaining, it was knid of cool.

  ...I have been on this for 3 days for chronic pain, not long I know. Let them be responsible for their limitations or lack of compassion. i'm worried about my jobmy manager is really supportive, but i work for an enormous corporation, and so far the claims process for short-term leave has been like dealing with my old PCP that i lefti feel like they don't believe me when i explain that it's impossible for me to work right now.

Sometimes it is just the negatives that reply.

Cymbalta withdrawal Dry Skin - The lack of normal moisture/oils in the surface layer of the body. I FIRMLY BELIEVE CYMBALTA SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE MARKET!!!!! ...

Comment #125: cymbalta

  ...Began the daily 30mg dosage of Cymbalta the last week of June as a treatment for mild irritable bowel syndrome. wanting out of my wonderful 23 year marriage for no apparent reason. I have had no withdrawal symtoms at all and especially none of the symtoms being reported on this website. I know it can be a battle to find a resolution to depression, chronic fatigue and other ailments that make us feel like crud. This medication got me through a really difficult time (loss of my daughter to leukemia). until I told her about my serious cognitive symptoms. SHE HAS HAD TO WEAN SEVERAL PT'S FROM IT AND DOES NOT LIKE THE DRUG AT ALL. Tapering will definitely help with discontinuation syndrome, which is actually lower than most antidepressants since the half life is 12 hours. Cymbalta withdrawal Lymphadenopathy Cervical - The lymph nodes in the neck, which are part of the body’s immune system get swollen and enlarge by reacting to the presence of a drug. I take 60mg cymbalta and I feel upbeat excited about my life and ready to face all of it. I was prescribed the drug to combat chronic back pain (nerve damage) and also because of the effects of living chronic pain, the depression. is one of the ones that tries to up the dose everytime I have problems or change the drug.

All I know is I am so tired all of the time.

He said we may have to change my medications.

  ...Cymbalta withdrawal Crying Abnormal - Unusual and not normal fits of weeping for short or long periods of time for no apparent reason.

Think, it's patriotic (and sometimes cathartic).

I have taken Cymbalta for a week and love it.

  ...suicide whilst taking Cymbalta (Yentreve, duloxetine). Almost feel like electricity is tuning through my body and I am real jittery. I have been taking Cymbalta for about six months now for my fibromyalgia, and I can sleep for the first time in years without feeling like death when I have to get up in the morning. my son called my family and they met us on the side of the road and took me to the ER. I lost weight, had trouble sleeping at night (but would fall asleep at the drop of a hat during the day), sold a lot of my belongings at one point when I started to think about suicide, and I couldn't remember anything worth a crap. Have been taking it for about 2 months and feel more depressed than ever before. The book suggests tapering slowly (about 1 dose reduction a month) dependant upon the withdrawl effects. Also, It is keeping my bi-polar disorder in check. but it is something that can be done - the supplements from the Road Back do help - especially with the anxiety and in my case the insomnia. Before going on any antidepressant, I consulted with my physician to make sure that whatever he put me on would not interfer with this important source of enjoyment for me while I worked on dealing with the things that led me to begin talk therapy in combination with drugs. Pdoc & gastrodoc both think that something in Cymbalta makes it worse, but can't find anything in research. On the brighter side, I'm staring to get back into my life again and I think (I hope) my marriage is healing as well. However the zaps & itching have all but taken over my life. Hang in there everyone - remember - we're not alone and even if our families/friends don't understand what we are going through, we have family/friends right here that do. Little hearts and happy faces You are telling others to become adults Kind of ironic Rachel. and everything checked out great, but he put me on Cymbalta. I have had very good success so far and as I have said, the only withdrawal effects I have had so far are some moments of nausea, some fatigue (especially in afternoon) and moments of anxiety. After reading the comments on this site, I'm glad to know what is wrong with me. Good luck to all of you and I will remember you in my prayers. I feel my Psy has just disregarded anything that was passed onto her. The other day I was so mad, I was unable to control myself and in the traffic on the freeway, I jumped out of my car in between cars, crying.

Comment #100: cymbalta no perscription

  ...I would like to offer myself up to the "Cymbalta Gods". When I was on the opiates I wasn't depressed but everything around me was falling apart. I can only lay in bed and cry- my vision is blurred and I am dizzy when standing and have an undescribable mental fog. Anyone else having this problem Before Cymbalta I had mood swingsa lot of anger and fear particularly (and for no good reason) I've just found this board after trying to get completely off Cymbalta and having a horrible day. Went off, and within a few days went back to my usual, painful, depressed self, but without added problem. I loved Cymbalta when I started taking it for mild depression and anxiety. It got quite severe and finally I just took a cab (I don't drive) and the pharmacist refilled it immediately. Well, I soon developed suicidal ideation. At least one that I at least have an "idea" of what the withdrawls will be like.

I can't honestly say this was due to Cymbalta.

I know some charge a fortune but shop around.

  ...now that i've finally thought to be curious about the cymbalta, i am overcome by what i've found out here on the webother people who feel like i do.

I took Prozac 100mg and it helped me not at all.

Comment #3: cymbalta and urinary problems

  ...Ive been on cymbalta for about 3 months (30mg) and have found it works great for my feelings of anxiety. Reading this board kind of scares me, but I guess I'm one of the lucky ones. My son has been on Cymbalta for approximately six weeks. I think it is probably a good idea to have the support of your psychiatrist/therapist, however I didn't. I had it next to my medication in the cabinet and the bottles were similar. Who allowed this to be on the market I have struggled with depression, feeling down, at times suicidal, etc.

I AM TRYING TO TAPER OFF STARTING LAST NIGHT.

  ...This medicine sneaks up on youwithout you even knowing it. for above symptoms, they ordered a sleep study and told me to go back on Cymbalta, that it wasn't that. Cymbalta withdrawal Vomiting - Involuntarily throwing up the contents of the stomach and usually getting a nauseated, sick feeling just prior to doing so. March 2006, depression struck, I couldn’t sleep, our GP prescribed Cymbalta 30mg, worked right from the start. I do have to admit that I did start smoking for some reason but I didn't have any of the symptoms that are described in the rest of this - I recently started taking the med again - and I feel like i'm back to my normal self - No more rainy clouds over my head - I LOVE THIS STUFF!! Glad you found Cymbalta worked well for you. I have my whole life back and Cymbalta had a lot to do with it. ...

Many withdrawal effects are, of course, of delayed onset. She had been treated for stress and an ulcer, but not ever for depression.
