Firstly, I have no pain, that is why I am stopping the Cymbalta, I don't need pain relief now, I can even do a 45 minute gym session workout without headaches arriving. I haven't used Imigran for 10 weeks either as I haven't had migraines/post concussive headaches.
To be honest the work hasn't been affected by withdrawing, probably because I am now better and I have gradually built up my stamina for work and other activities. I have just had to pace myself.
To cut a long story short, I am better and that is why I am ceasing this medication. The only symptom left is very mild light sensitivity under bright artificial lighting. I am 100% confident this will also go in the next few months or so.
Good luck, I am sure you will get there!
