Cymbalta side effects

I was recently prescribed low dose Cymbalta (20mg at bedtime) to deal with generalized anxiety disorder and I've been on 20mg Celexa since 2007. I have digestive problems from radiation damage to pelvis and abdomen (which was done in 1998) and I also have SIBO. Since I started on the Cymbalta about 3 weeks ago I believe I've noticed more constipation. Has anyone else also experienced this with Cymbalta and is it something that might get better as I'm on the medication longer? TIA.

I have not had any trouble with constipation from Cymbalta. It took a couple of weeks for my system to adjust (nausea) but have been fine ever since.

I wish all of you luck with Cymbalta. When I took it several years ago it turned me into a monster. Several times I verbally attacked my sisters and my boyfriend at the time. Thought I was going crazy. Was fine when I stopped taking it.
