In reply to No More Cymbalta According to the Pdoc, posted by Phillipa on January 7, 2006, at 22:15:47
Hello there, Ms. Phillipa,
I'm sorry you had to go through all that, just to find out that Cymbalta isn't the med for you. If it's any consolation, I have tremendous difficulty with most meds, also. As for drug combinations, forget it! I can't combine anything with anything. A few years ago, when I had Lyme Disease, I had to stop my AD while I was on Doxycycline. I lowered the AD dose and then stopped it. I couldn't find anything in the medical literature about contraindications to combining Doxycycline with the meds I was on, but I got horrendous headaches and several other intolerable side effects. On the Doxycycline alone, I was OK.
May I ask how many milligrams of Cymbalta you were on?
You are not alone, Phillipa. I know it so frustrating, but some day we will find something that helps us. . .
