Hi there, oh boy do you sound like me my friend soooooooo much. I have been struggling to find the right med or rather a med I can tolerate for three years now and am very frustrated.
I hear many people are very happy with cymbalta, the doc put me on it after my beloved mama unexpectedly passed away. I didnt notice the bad side effects then because I was in such a state. But do remember after the side effects I do remember subsided some I really felt good and cant remember why I got off of it,I think of some stupid thing I head about the liver problems it can give people but was false information! Anyways so I have tried it twice since even at 20ml baby dose for this lightweight LOL, anyways and am so frustrated because I cant get past the side effects this time and I wish I wouldnt of got off it. Part of me was worried in the beginning that I was allergic to it as I felt red eyed,sore throat,itchy and rash but its a hard call with me as I have lupus/fibro and that makes me sensitive to everything. I posted a post about a similiar SNRI called "Savella" that is supposed to be more tolerable to take,havent tried it yet still holding on to the sample packet the doc gave me a month ago sigh.......so scary but yet so frustrating but yet......such a fight to get back on track to get my life back. Anyways I just wanted to say I can really relate to you and let you know you are so not alone ok, wishing the best for you and keep me posted. Wishing you a panic free night :)
