Started cymbalta friday night, other than the side affects my nerves felt good until I woke up today. Not sure if its from the cymablta but I am lit up more than I was before cymbalta. Anyone else experience this?

The norepi side of the Cymbalta is stimulating to some people.

You'll have to keep track of your blood pressure if you feel these energizing side effects. Avoid caffeine too. Cymbalta can raise blood pressures in people with that tendency.

That would be good if it raised my blood pressure since its always on the low side. I have an addiction to caffeine but haven't had any since september. It used to bring me great happiness.

Hi, was in to see my gp today to get blood results everything a ok. Asked about my pain, gave her the low down. Taking me off the nortriptyline and putting me on Cymbalta. She also stated that she is taking me off of tramadol as the two together do not play well. So going back on t3's. Hope I can get some weight off now as that nortriptyline and lyrica (still taking) put a lot on my belly.

I had to quit cymbalta. My doctor said to try and tough it out unless it was unbearable. On a scale of 1-10 the pain it caused my nerves was a 20. I don't think it directly was affecting my nerves but was probably irritating my stomach which inflames my nerves just like any PPI drug does. I feel alot better now being off it except now I can't sleep at all.

Yep I agree about Drs. writing info into record. I have a history of depression, nobody ever asks what triggered it, only that I have peroids of it. Mine came on when I was going from dr to dr trying to find out what my problem was. Finally found cancer in 3 places, but all a dr sees is the word depression and they look at you differently.

Been off nortriptolyne and tramadol for a month and have lost 10 lbs, hand jerks are gone and feel more alert then before. Also was taken off of prevacid (on it for 15 years) and put on tecta for my heartburn.

So now on Cymbalta and lyrica for the control of the burning and electric sharp razor pains. Just a few sneak in during each week. Using t3 for the walking pain (about 12 to 15 a day).

I wear really good sneakers with good form and gel soles built in to help with walking around.

My pain are in my feet, ankles , thighs and just starting in the hands which I hope passes quickly as I use a keyboard all day for work.

Still holding and going strong.

You all, take care!!
