What Are The Side Effects Of Intake Of Cymbalta For Severe Pain Due To Fibromyalgia?
I suffer from Fibromyalgia and in a lot of pain. My job is very heavy lifting and shift work. I keep active, walking, hiking, swimming etc... but 9% of the time I am in pain. With this pain I suffer depression at times. As I am getting older the pain is getting worse. I am concerned about starting Cymbalta due to all the side effects mentioned. I did take one pill, one day and I felt sick to my stomach. With my job I can t feel like that. Is this the medication for me? Thank you. Dale Carr.
