> I don't think I can tolerate it much longer. I think it's from the Cymbalta. God I hate to think of making another switch because of this! Has anyone done well on just Wellbutrin and Klonopin? Perhaps I could just taper off the Cymbalta and see how I do AND if the twitching goes away. Are Cymbalta caps filled with beads like Effexor so that I could divide them and taper without another prescription?
How many miligrams of Cymbalta are you taking? Also, I know you're taking a multivitamin and eating bananas for extra potassium, but are you getting enough calcium and magnesium? I take my multivite in the morning, a calcium supplement (250-500mg) with dinner (and/or a BIG glass of lowfat milk -- calcium is best absorbed with food), and magnesium (250mg) at or near bedtime. My eye twitching is minimal. Maybe for a few seconds every other day or so.
