Members discussed Cymbalta in light of a recent recall tied to possible cancer-causing contamination, with several noting relief after checking that their specific manufacturer was not affected. Experiences with the medication were mixed, as some found it helpful for pain management while others described difficult side effects like weight gain and a tough withdrawal process. A standout story came from one member who found lasting fibro pain relief through a ketamine IV series, sharing that maintenance treatments every couple of years have kept them medication-free and pain-free.

Thanks Cloud I don't take any meds apart from 2 paracetamol at times.

I took it for 3 yrs, it was the worst medicine Ive ever been on! Weight gain, and step down to come off if it is horrendous!
I got my IV K series and havent been on any medicine since

Thx @A MyFibroTeam Member. I saw that recall and read the article. It only pertains to a certain manufacturer. I looked at the manufacturer for mine, and it was not the recalled product (thankfully).
