| 1 | for depression | Weight gain, anger issues, vision problems, suicidal thoughts, body aches, extremely tired, memory problems, dizziness and that isn't even all of them | I have been off of it for a year I think I still don't feel normal I've had ongoing issues with my voice that started before I went off cymbalta. My depression is getting to the point that I'm not sure I will be able to go back to work I'm on temporary TDI. I now find myself being paranoid about several things especially medications. For me cymbalta did way more harm than good. | F | 59 | 7 years 120 | 3/2/2018 | 1 | Fibr | Too many to list. | Drug from hell | F | 58 | 6 years 90mg | 2/19/2018 | 1 | Anxiety | I didn’t have anxiety but it made me numb to life I stopped caring I lost my wife my house and everything I loved. I was suicidal it was like I was in a coma to be quite honest. Now that I am awake I am in a damn nightmare | F | 45 | 1 days 50mg | 12/23/2017 | 5 | Major Depressive Disorder | Occasional night sweats and dehydration, but that’s with any SNRI.... | Cymbalta saved my life. I have been on many different anti-depressants over the years and this is the only one that can weather the storm of an acute attack of depression (with major depressive disorder). It manages my day-to-day depression wonderfully. I wouldn’t take it for pain. I am disabled due to degenerative disc disease, among other things. I’ve had 4 surgeries and take opioids for the lingering pain I am left with. | F | 48 | 3 years 60mg 1X day | 12/22/2017 | 5 | Depression | NO weight gain whatsoever | Works awesome! | F | 42 | 2 years 60mg 1X day | 12/22/2017 | 3 | Fibromyalgia | Weight gain foggy brain | It did help with fibro pain some what | F | 38 | 3 years 60 mg | 12/10/2017 | 5 | Fibromyalgia | I had to stop using it because I was diagnosed with Bipolar and was taking to other medications that had Serotonin in them causing be Serotonin Storm. It was fine before taking two other medications with Serotonin in them. | Cymbalta worked great for Fibromyalgia. It was nice to be able to swim again because my skin wasn't sensitive to the cold. I was disappointed when I had to quit taking it. But I had to make a choice which was worse the Bipolar or Fibromyalgia. | F | 54 | 4 years 3 mg 1X day | 11/10/2017 | 1 | Depression and fibromyalgia both | BODY ODOR!!! . Husband wouldn't touch me, even though I showered. Any time I perspired (or any body fluid actually) the slightest bit the odor was overwhelming! Sex life was irreparably damaged with husband for over 5 years after. | problem stopped after a week or so of stopping the medicine. Never worked for depression, probably because I didn't take it long enough. | F | 48 | 5 weeks 1X day | 11/10/2017 | 1 | depression & pain | death | my father took this medication. he wasn't a complainer, so I really don't know if anything else was going on. I cared for him 24 hrs a day . I didn't notice he was turning yellow, but my husband did. we contacted his dr who told us to stop giving it to him. 2 weeks later he passed. worst day of my life! he probably would have passed sooner but the previous year he had a pacemaker put in, so as his system was shutting down the pacemaker kept him going. I don't think it really helped his depression either. I wish they would take this product off the market. however I don't see any ads for this any longer. if you have someone you love that's taking this I urge you to find something else. I feel there are to many products on the market that are bad. too may politicians are getting paid to make sure meds like this are on the market regardless the consequences. | F | 88 | 3 years 2X day | 10/14/2017 | 4 | Osteoarthritis | Brief nausea upon waking, also mild dizziness - both passed after the first week. Occasional headaches. | I started taking this for serious pain in my hands due to osteoarthritis. I take 60MG just before going to bed around 10:00PM; my hands do get sore towards the early evening, but not nearly as bad as it was. The negative side effects mostly subsided after a couple of weeks of use. It does help me feel more calm, and my thoughts are actually a bit clearer. I also lost some weight due to not eating compulsively. | M | 51 | 45 days 60MG 1X day | 10/11/2017 | 1 | ocd | insomnia. speeding. shaking. feeling sick. clamey sweating. weakness. | was given to me because i'd tried all other meds. i found this one to be VERY!, powerfull- almost like meth or something... CAN'T be good for your cns. i only lasted 5 days on it. my body HATED!, it. good for folks it helps, but for me- i don't need amphetamine in my life right now. | M | 48 | 5 days 30mg 1X day | 9/25/2017 | 4 | fibromyalgia | I've had nausea almost every night and the poops on certain days. Despite all this, I've lost weight, have way less pain and am in a happier mood. I have no depression lately, so its all good. my sex drive is fine. I do feel the withdrawal though when I skipped it once to enjoy my supper. So i'd advised others not to skip a dose. | F | 46 | 2 weeks 30mg 1X day | 8/31/2017 | 1 | Pain | Severe hair loss after taking Duloxetine 20mg,which was increased to 30mg,then reduced to 20. Beware of side effect. Have stopped taking the drug. | F | 87 | 105 days 1X day | 7/29/2017 | 5 | Hip pain | Day 1 I was a little nausea, day 2 some diarrhea but no hip pain! Day 3 no pain and no side effects! I love this medication! I did not want to be put on opioid pain pills. I'm back in my yard working again.

I have asked my PCM several times why am I taking this, it is not doing anything for me but making me sick. They are afraid to take me off of Cymbalta because of the side effects. I have tried to do this myself but the side effects were so bad, I would end up in the emergency room and could not function.
