Thanks all for the responses. Over the last 20 some odd years I've been on just about every med except for remeron. I will be adding Ritalin to the cymbalta, if needed, once I've adjusted to the switch. Today was day one at 30 mg of Cymbalta and no Lexapro. Very tired, and having some sweats, but nothing too awful yet.
Pdoc and I discussed possibly increasing my seroquel, but one step at a time. Seroquel really makes me have a raging appetite, even at a small dose.
I'm not sure if a couple of the meds you mentioned as available in Canada (stablon, milnacipran or amisulpride. Maybe some Canuks on pbabble would know.
I'm just trying to work with my pdoc the best I can. I know he's consulting with some of his colleagues about me but for right now I'm going to give it a trial and who knows, maybe some much needed relief from fibro pain.
Thanks everyone. Cross your fingers for me that the switch doesn't get too rocky.
