Well, what do you know. I think I'm very lucky to have had it caught by the pharmacist. (I must remember to apologize to the woman, I was so angry and not understanding the seriousness of the situation when she refused to dispense the Prozac.) But I had the whole shebang - fever, sweating, diarrhea, confusion, back pain - heck, it felt like my spine was trying to come out of my back. I thought I had a mysterious flu bug and a bout of stupidity. In reality, my migraine cluster and the medication I took to treat it interacted with the Cymbalta. Usually a single dose of Maxalt would stop a migraine attack, but that's not the case while experiencing a cluster of headaches.
I'm feeling rather numb at the moment, aside from still having the blasted headache. But mostly I'm feeling lucky that someone noticed what was going on.
