You know, it may very well be the withdrawal. I went back and looked and you only mentioned "planning" to slowly come off Cymbalta on the Feb 18...not actually starting the taper yet. So you are talking about a very short period of time to go from 30/40mg to nothing (less then 2 weeks)! I'd be willing to bet that the majority of this is withdrawal as it will make your original symptoms much worse.

Did you mention to the doctor about how fast you've tapered off? There was another poster here that recently had a very hard time coming off Cymbalta...took a LONG time to finally get off completely. And she talked about the same increase in symptoms like you.

It may have been doing much more than you think for your symptoms. That is the case sometimes and you don't realize how much it was helping until you stopped taking it and experienced your symptoms again without anything.

Just a thought. You might want to talk to your doctor about an appropriate taper plan to get off the Cymbalta without so much withdrawal.
