I have been thinking the same thing, Cymbalta definately works. I have been working today, cooked dinner for the family and did 2 hours weeding in the garden this evening and I feel fine.

It makes me wonder if it is wise to stop it and replace it with a tablet that might not necessarily stop headaches and makes me sleep.

Diarrhea throughout the morning is the issue, but as you say this could be temporary so I probably will not change things around yet, and I have 4 months scripts for medication.
