Re: Cymbalta For Neuropathy

I posted someplace how Cymbalta saved me from the chemo and AI pain, and it did. But after a couple of months it made me a zombie sloth. I skipped it one day with intent to stop it, and I cried for no reason all day until I took it, it was silly because I wasn't sad or upset. Things didn't get better until I took it, but now breathing is difficult so I went to Dr. Google and found tons of issues associated with taking it including breathing issues and articles associated with stopping Cymbalta, the articles basically state if your tempted to try it, DO NOT, because getting off it is hell. Well, after two months on 20mg and trying to get off it, hell is an understatement. If your in this boat and based on today's googling ... my conclusion is rarely just stopping is successful, pulse dosing also does not work, and removing one bead from capsule each day over a long period of time was only successful approach. If you do not want to be a slave to this drug, do not start it.
