In reply to Cymbalta withdrawal - Publicity, posted by Avalon on May 25, 2006, at 18:58:08
Unfortunately, I don't live in New York City, but the New York Times has a day on which there is a section devoted to Science (Science Times?). They might consider doing a story on this. Also, The Wall Street Journal has a science writer/reporter who might be willing to listen. The edit page is conservative, but the rest of the paper usually is not. And these newspapers have all the advertising they need, so telling the truth about Cymbalta shouldn't hurt their revenue.
In reading the flurry of postings lately, I worry about some of the advice on mixing medications. What is good for one person may not be good for another, and something significant could happen to permanently injure someone. My family wanted to admit me to the hospital because my withdrawal symptoms were so serious. Using the Benadryl seemed to be the most benign antidote, and it did help. At the same time, I HAD to take my cancer medication, BP medication, a statin, and withstand all the side effects in combination with Cymbalta withdrawal. My oncologist told me that while getting rid of this medication to drink lots of water. It helps get this crap out of your system.
