Hi, I'm new here. I recently finished weaning off of Cymbalta after having been on 60mg/day for the previous two years. In addition to the withdrawal symptoms that I expected like brain zaps, lightheadedness and GI symptoms, I've been experiencing asthma-like symptoms, blood pressure spikes, vertigo, and heart palpitations. I'm also extremely moody and I have a short fuse and fly off the handle for no reason (very abnormal for me). I'm especially concerned about the shortness of breath, high blood pressure and palpitations. I've recently seen a doctor about them and she couldn't find anything wrong. I'm wondering if they might be related to the Cymbalta and if any one else had experienced those symptoms.
