After doing a bit of research I have discovered that Cymbalta at 60mg or above can potentially cause your blood pressure to drop. Particularly when gettting up from sitting up/lying down to standing.

It seems too much of a coincidence to me that my three collapses occurred when I was on 60mg of Cymbalta and happened in the morning when I woke up and rose from bed.

Epilepsy no, Cymbalta yes was the cause of my collapses. Hopefully I can get back driving soon!
