My doctor's instructions were to stop the Cymbalta abruptly as my blood pressure was refusing to come down from the 145/100 range. She (and I) were concerned about the risk of stroke. My blood pressure is to stabilize for a week before she will put me back on *any* AD.
The headaches add to the misery as nothing touches the pain. They are not migraines but as I try the OTC options my stomach is protesting.
The tingling in my face and lips is not a problem, nor are the tremors in my hands.
The utter sadness and longing for release from it is the most frightening thing for me. I am not bearing up at all.
