    Was on Cymbalta 60mg. about 3 yrs. Stopped c/t when I lost my ins. Horrible w/d. Now back on and weaning slowly. Still suffering. Looking for help from people who have been there. Been tapering for 2 months, and down about 9 mg.

I've been tapering extremely slowly, almost two years at it so far, tapering from 60mg.

Does anyone else have mostly horrendous physical symptoms? I have very little anxiety or

depression. But the physical symptoms won't let me taper any faster. I've broke out inside my

mouth, all over my body. The lymph nodes all over my head swelled up and hurt. Awful stabbing

headaches with nausea, and I feel like I'm on the verge of pneumonia all the time. Anyone else

affected mostly physically? Anything I can do? I come here every day to be reminded that it

will end one of these days.

I'm concerned for you as swolen hurting lymph nodes could be a sign of something more serious than WD from cymbalta. Please go see your GP/PCP if this doesn't resolve in the next few days. I think it is hard to sometimes know for sure what is related to c/t WD and what isn't; better to be safe especially with yourhealth. Take care and god luck.

Thank you for your concern! It really is hard to know what is wd and what is not. The lymph node swelling only lasted a few

days, and it seems it was all part of the WD symptoms I was having. Seems Cymbalta can affect anything and everything.

But you are right, we shouldn't just automatically assume everything is WD.
