Long Term Cymbalta Usage Link

Hi everyone I just wanted to put this link out here for everyone that is on, about to go on to read, how damaging Cymbalta can be to your body! Last dr visit I told her I believe it's changed my entire body chemistry. All I can say or advise we have to be our own health advocates and do as much research as you can on whatever treatment your dos want to put you on..... Here's the link: http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/opinions/23306/

It's "What Drs Don't Know About Fibromyalgia" by Linda Meiilink with Patrick Rhoades, MD. That's the correct title.

About 5-7 yrs ago, I read a book written by a woman( and her doctor) who went on Cymbalta.
She then was trying to go off Cymbalta and it was her story. It was a nightmare. I would not Ever try it. It was scary. People talk about the opiods and how you become physically dependent which is true. But at least you know exactly what you are in for if you go off of them. Lyrica, Cymbalta and quite a few other drugs also have withdrawal symptoms that are just as terrifying. It's really sad that people don't learn of these until they have to go through them. Thank you for putting up the link. Best to you.
