Are you following your doctor's advise to step down gradually? Or did you stop taking Cymbalta cold turkey? You have to ease off any depression medication or you will get withdrawal symptoms - I'm sure your doctor told you that. He must also have started you on another medication to replace the Cymbalta and you should be taking that new medication EVERY DAY, without fail while gradually stepping down your Cymbalta intake.

If you *didn't* following instructions and now you don't feel well - why aren't you going back to your doctor and telling him about it instead of posting here? Go to the doctor and let him help you! That's why we have doctors!

WHAT ABOUT THE DOCTORS STOCK IN THE DRUG CYMBALATA....ASK HIM/HER..........YOU MIGHT BE SURPRIZED ...LOL

Hi wilkins905 can't see where your coming from and don't think it's funny any withdrawal from drugs is not good and can be extremely hard for the person to deal with this. I know through my own experiences. I hope that notlikingthis gets assistance soon rather than coming on and seemingly getting negativity. Take care Piglit

You are right it's not funny and i am sorry for stating lol,but it is in many cases true..these pharmarcy companiees court these doctors to use their drugs and that is true....stock maybe questioniable but likely....i am on the stuff myself and have been trying to get off..I started with only 20mg/day and over time went up to 60mg /day..now down to 40mg /day....I feel your PAIN

Thanks for the reply wilkins905. It;s good that youv'e been able to reduce the medication a little. In my case I had no choice but to go cold turkey as the drug they had me on caused me to clot. I had pe's on both lungs and a dvt in the leg. And yes you are so true in what you have stated in regards to the pharmacy companies, Take care Piglit

I have some other medical issues too.......i just did not mention them ..peace be with you...i am confident you will be fine..keep the faith!

Thanks I am doing okay and yes we do have to keep the faith and stay strong. You have a very kind soul.
