Yes, and thanks. I went on Omega three, benedryl to help with the brain zaps and fatigue. Benedryl mimics cymbalta in the brain so it helps when you are de-toxing and won't make you sleepy. Magnesium 1000mg. for calming you down since I noticed I had bouts of rage and crying sometimes at the same time. Oh the omega 4000 mg this will help with depression. In Europe they are using Omega three for depression to help treat it. I think it is working. My depression is for the most part gone. Just every now and then. My panic attacks are manaegeable. I at least understand them and the source. B-12, taken under the tongue, sublingually, 500 mg. this is good for the central nervous system. These I started with, I was also on evening primrose oil and topamax which helped with the brain zaps, I still got them they just weren't so painful. I had it all still just. Brain zaps, two different rashes that were so bad, the flu-like symtoms, rage, blurry vision, memory loss, the shakes, depression, thoughts of suicide, panic attacks, aches in my legs, feet, hips so bad I went to an orthopedic surgeon, and gastro distress so bad I went into the hospital. But the supplements began to help. One in particular I added was Power Barley Formula which is a green powder you drink in water that helps the liver de-tox. You see that is what we are all doing det-ox off cymbalta. My neurologist confirmed this. She said the brain is dependent on it to make three different chemicals. No matter how short the time you take it, the brain depends on it to function and make those chemicals. When you go off, the brain must re-build and restore itself. How long is up to each individual. Plus cymbalta lives in tissue so it can take a long time for the liver to rid your body of it. Tsk Tsk so much no one tells the unsuspecting patient to be!!!!!
