Thank you Racer, Phillipa and Quintal.
i'm just now able to get out of bed- the vomiting became so severe that i almost went to the hospital. It was especially terrible because i couldn't hold down pain meds.
Yes, Quintal - i take oxycontin for pain. Cymbalta does block the pain reducing effects. i want to lower it - am so afraid of effects - it's too large a dose. i thought Cymbalta would help but i'm so sensitive to antidepressents and anti psychotics. i had companzine and i know that falls into those classes of meds but somehow it was ok to help the severe nausea.
i will never take it again- i think it's an allergy- i kept having sneezing and vomiting at the same time and could hardly breathe.
why am i so sensitive- it was only 20 mg and i know someone who takes over 100 mg. i tried cymbalta and had a negative effect before but it was years ago and i thought that i may have been attributing the effect to my imagination but no- i can't take it . It's sad because i really wanted to start going off the oxycontin or at least lowering it. Since the surgery in Jan the pain is worse - not better. i hope that i heal.
Thanks you so much,
kerria
