I wasn't aware that you should stop taking this medication slowly and have horrible problems for the past three weeks after stopping. Thirteen days after stopping Cymbalta my blood pressure spiked so high I couldn't walk and ended up in ER. My blood pressure is still spiked and can't get it to go down even with blood pressure meds. I'm spending a lot of money on tests and missed a lot of work due to dizziness, fatigue and inability to drive. The label on this medication should state DO NOT STOP taking this medication without doctor assistance.

Dr. didn't educate me of the extremely painful withdrawal. Worst stomach ache of my life!!! Had to go to ER because I couldn't keep a sip on water down. Almost 2 weeks of withdrawal, and my stomach pain is not getting better. Feel like I'm dying. This medicine is POISON. Would like to see the makers of this medicine go through these symptoms--if they are human. You can't put a price on the pain I've endured.Should be taken off market.

This is an evil drug. First off, this does not work for anxiety or pain, second this is very expensive ($400 for refill) and 3rd, you�ll be dependent with this drug!
