@rwinney I know you and so many are correct about taking an antidepressant. It makes me feel weak because I am the glue to my family. I'm the strong one. I have Cymbalta and haven't been able to get myself to take it. I told my husband, I don't know what it is ( this pain, is it nerves, vessels, spasms?) What is causing this pain, what has made my body this way? What did I do to induce this? I'm just so dumbfounded! I'm so scared I'm damaging more waiting for answers, I'll never get better.
I get what I call adrenalin dumping, but its painful. Its so hard to explain and doctors look at me like I'm insane, but its real. It makes my legs weak and has caused bathroom issues. My primary doctor things its all musculoskeletal and nerves from lifting weights, but why isn't it subsiding? And what about my pulse? The other day I mopped my kitchen floor and it was 149. Thats not right!! I believe something is wrong with my body, and my anxiety has worsened the symptoms.
May I ask you how Cymbalta worked for you? I also take gabapentin at night only with a muscle relaxer.
All of you have my heart tugging!!! I love the support! Its helpful and I am grateful!
