I had to stop taking lyrica for the same reason. It made me swell up like a balloon and made the pain worse. Cymbalta did the same thing to me. I have sensitivities to so many meds that i have not taken any meds for 3 years now and it isn't easy. I sympathise with you.

swelling is posted as side effect...look on WebMd...recommends call dr

i have deveoped side effects even after a lengthy time taking some meds safely...hard to know why...so go now to doc

It has never happened to me like that. Sounds like allergy. Please call your doctor and be checked. Meantime if you feel worse go to the emergency if can't wait to see doctor. Hugs and feel better. Sorry I didn't have the swelling like you. But gained weight.

Yeah my body couldn't tolerate cymbalta at all! I tried elavil too but it just wasn't helping. Isn't there anything else you cant try?!
