I am glad you called the doc. did he stop the cymbalta or jsut add the effexor to it? Let me know how the ambien works for you.
Love Venora

Cymbalta had the same effect on me. I take Wellbutrin & lexapro but may need to try something different as I have been extremely depressed since going off my pain meds. I hope you find something that can work for you too.
