I was taking elavil since WC had decided they were no longer going to pay for my Cymbalta or any other anti-depressants, and my doc said that she had two other patients on elavil that had had the same heart problems and this was a very rare reaction to elavil. She gave me some samples of Cymbalta to replace the elavil and voila!! Most of the heart problems resolved. I do hope that your tests come back well for you and you are certainly in my heart and prayers. Lisa
