Sorry about the earlier test message. My registration must have expired and I couldn't post for awhile.
Anyway, I wanted to let you know that I think I am the first person on this board to discontinue Cymbalta. It had only been a week at 30 mg but I couldn't tolerate the side effects anymore. There was an evident increase in anxiety, dizziness, and I had difficulty sleeping. When I was on Effexor a few years back, I experienced the exact s/e's, which did not go away after a two month trial. So, my pdoc and I thought it would be best to discontinue since side effects typically don't go away with me. Also, I didn't want to suffer through two months of side effects and then be confronted with a potential horrible withdrawal.
I know many of you are doing well on Cymbalta and I wish you continued success. It just wasn't meant to be for me and Cymbalta.
