Tomorrow I will find out "what it's gonna be." Nervous as a cat starting yesterday, as I am now not so sure I'm willing to go thru "all this" YET again. The GERD factor has me feeling pretty hopeless, now re: Cymbalta. Ditto re: the constipation. The nausea I *maybe* could get around using crytallized ginger.
ravenstorm, the only reason I believe I can tolerate Prozac is because I am one for whom 10 mg works better than more. Otherwise, my stomach would never handle it. I may end up just adding Seoquel for sleep to the Prozac, rather than start all over with Cymbalta. If I'd seen more people here getting a good response with Cymbalta in week 1-2, as with Remeron, I'd be more apt to try & weather all the GI side-efeccts that will (let's face it) very likely ensue for me.
New question: for those who are doing well on Cymbalta, did you also happen to do well (mood-wise) on Effexor?
For me, all I got on Effexor was a stimulating response that faded away within weeks to days at each increase, until I finally had to admit that it wasn't doing much, if anything.
Thanx to all who have relpied. I will keep you updated.
