I am starting Cymbalta tonight for the treatment of Fibromyalgia. I am really hoping the side effects of this medication are not too bad. The initial dose is 30mg at bedtime for 2 weeks then increase to 60mg at bedtime thereafter. I have been taking 20mg of Celexa for over 10 years for anxiety, and now will slowly ween off of it and onto Cymbalta. My Dr. told me to cut down the Celexa to 10mg a day for 1 week and then stop it all together. Or, if I feel that I need more time weening, I can take 10mg every other day for an additional week.
So, wish me luck! I will try to post every day with an update on how things are going.
