My do doctor put me on Cymbalta today. I've heard really good things about it. I'm also hoping that coming off the gabapentin I'll lose some of the 50 pounds I put on. He wants me to slowly cut out gabapentin.
I've read that Cymbalta can help with your mood energy levels etc.
What is anyone's Feed back on this?
I take Cymbalta and I can say yes it does work it's really good for mood stability I've had no problems with it. Best of luck to you. I've stopped taking the Gabapentin and I also started drinking lime water lost 23 pounds
I'm doing well on cymbalta. With the switch from gabapentin to cymbalta, going gluten and sugar free, I have lost over 35 lbs. Plus, it definitely helps with the mood and the pain. On gabapentin, my average pain was a 5 and now it's a 2. Good luck! It does take a while to kick in though.
Cymbalta does help with depression etc. I have been on it for years now and I find it's the only one I can take without side effects. I haven't gained any weight actually lost weight.
Sending you all the hugs you help to feel better. Your not alone.
I went off Lyrica because of water weight. I ended up being rushed to the hospital bc water was going in my lungs. I was given an injection and lost 40 lbs of water, stayed for a week on the heart ward. Now I take a water pill to keep water weight down. I was put on Cymbalta and not reqreted it except I can't take the generic Cymbalta. Its good for depression, moods, and Fibromyalgia symptoms as well. Its been 6 yrs on Cymbalta.
