I took Cymbalta why I was first diagnosed and did okay, but hated the side affects so went off of it as soon as I could, then I took Aleve but can't take any NSAIDs or aspirins or anything actually but Tylenol. Has anyone taken Cymbalta and done well? Or Any other meds? Have you tried a hot tub? When I get bad I take pain meds.
When I was able to use a hot tub 3 or more times a week plus wet sauna, I felt much better. I think that it helped to rid my body of toxins. Cost was too high for health club membership plus fuel costs. We live several miles out of town.
I personally. haven't experienced any side effects from Cymbalta. I take it for depression and fibro. Good luck!
Thank you everyone !!! it seems to me , some people have developed symptoms on cymbalta that I had with my depression before I started it. Overall I think for now I'm on the right meds for me . Thanks again for all the input
Your symptoms.s when on the medication are what my daily life consists of on no meds ,it sucks to live like this .am changing from kaiser in October ,any advise on a insurance co
My side affects were more fog, feeling like a zombie all the time, no enthusiasm for anything, even more tired, headaches, nausea, and couldn't sleep. I was only on 30mg too. But, I never have been good with any medication so I was not too surprised. I do have celiac also and that adds other things in the mix as far as medication.
When I went off I did it very slowly. It took about 6 weeks. I had no trouble going off. I was fine until the hot weather came and have been pretty bad since then. I am still working and still do all my things ; it hurts but I will not give it up. It hurts anyway so why quit something you live?
