It is a start at least. I hope that it gives a little bit of an improvement for you. If this little step doesn't help they still have plenty of room to work with. Best of luck.

I looked up the therapeutic dosages and it said 60mg/day is effective in most cases, but it can be prescribed up to 120mg/day.

Alaina is right. 30mg is just to start. There is room to move if it doesn't help right away. You are on other meds that may need to be/could be adjusted to make the Cymbalta work better, too.

I really hope it helps you. I'm happy that for once, your pdoc has agreed to step out of the box and try something different. The meds you were taking were not working for you

Personally the doctor's like to start at a lower dosage to make sure
you can adjust to the theurapeutic dosage.

SO I think the 30mg is a good dosage to start at.

you could bring it up and apologize to her for your comment.
Maybe you could do that.
I hope you meet up with her.

I don't want to bring it up. I don't think she forgot. She triggered me and I didn't think of the implications of what I said. She was never a good listener when I had problems. I think that was part of why I said what I said. She had hurt me. It was also being bipolar. I have been asking God for forgiveness. I have a very tough superego

It went great with Zeynep today. We talked about getting together again. She looks the same after 23 years..maybe she is a bit thinner. It didn't seem like 23 years.
