Jay not sure if I should ask you online but I will don't think Scott will mind. Well I found pbabble when cymbalta came out and there was only one pdoc at the beach and he gave me the months worth free when I saw him monthly. Started me on 30mg. Didn't notice a thing side effect wise. So not knowing this was a board for tx resistant I followed Scott's progress daily if he did good so did I. When it failed for him I figured it was no good by then I was on 60mg. And then read about the slow tappering off which I did never did that before. Figured it wouldnt' work so why go further. Anyway on til off about 3-4months. So I move the Charlotte see this pdoc I seriously hated the first time I met him he was obnoxious. He said did you have side effects to cymbalta I said no. So he prescribed 30mg week l 60mg week 2, 90mg week 3, and then 120mg. I said to him the manufacturer only says 60mg he said I like it better this way. So I was scared to death. The 30mg right away made my head feel like it would explode and couldn't cry at all. So do you think my chemistry changed or was it the relationship with the doc? And if I get another pdoc trying now would you give it another shot or forget it? I know you're not a doc. Looking for your opinion only. Thanks Phillipa
