Things settling down now, it sends me to sleep and I wake up groggy but no bothersome side effects. Will step up to 50mg on Thursday but don't think I will need more than that.

I did notice when I did a 40 mile cycle yesterday that I didn't sweat a lot - possible side effect. However no headache/earache of any great significance afterwards, only minor.

So with 30mg Cymbalta and 50mg Topomax I will hopefully be able to get on with my life - without weight gain.
