Hi, my doctor had been trying to put me on the Cymbalta for about 5 years now starting right after I had my first child. I was having severe stomach pain and chest pain and not sleeping. He told me that it was from postpardum depression. I never liked taking pills so I stopped right away. My symtoms kept up over the years after my doctor basically telling me I was crazy I started to believe him and went on the Cymbalta. What a mistake. This January I started having such chest pains that my husband rushed me to the hospital, it turned out that my goll bladder was so badly diseased and filled with stones that it had to be taken out right away. The hospital had told me that the problem probably had started right after I have my first child and that I was actually sick all this time not crazy. I had been to see a neurologist who told me to go off of the Cymbalta slowly and I am now off completely for 4 days and am feeling horrible. I started going to the neurologist because I was having pains in my wrists, ankles and legs it turns out I have a Vitamin D deficiency but now I don't know if the pains are from that or from the Cymbalta. I can't wait for this to all be over I feel like I am actually crazy now.
