A cautionary tale….i was on Cymbalta for several years for fibromyalgia pain. Over time it increased my blood pressure (long story how I learned Cymbalta was the cause).. I foolishly quit cold turkey thinking the warnings against doing that were likely “worst case”. It was a foolish and dangerous thing to do. I was depressed to the point of not wanting to live in that state. I sat in my chair nearly full time and developed lung clots.

Do not dc Cymbalta cold turkey!
