I ask this because I think most of what Fibromyalgia is may be related to an exhausted adrenal gland. I'd been on Cymbalta for over a year and a half and due to finances, stopped taking it. I never realized all this drug had done for me! The muscle pain, fatigue, tender points, brain and total drain on energy all came back with a vengeance. Months went by and I saw a holistic specialist. She mentioned to me all the symptoms I mentioned sounded very much like adrenal fatigue. I went home and googled it (if interested, you should do the same) and it matched exactly to how I was feeling on a daily basis!!! And matches the discription of fibromyalgia too. The Cymbalta worked wonders for my fibro. The doctor couldn't tell my how/why it did, so I did some research.

Here, Cymbalta is a norepriphrine upper ---- which is ADRENALINE!!!!

my adrenal gland may be sooo shot, it gives me no adrenaline (no adrenaline =no energy + lack of hormones + host of other problems). I can honestly say i do not get the adrenaline rush I need at times because I am to weak to yell at my kids or get into an arguement about anything. LOL!!

anyhow, I am taking supplements for my adrenal health and am starting back up on the Cymbalta. I also set up an appointment with an endocronologist for later this month so she can do a total check-over on those bummered out adrenal glands.

Anyone else seen an endocronologist for their fibro symptoms???
