MDJunction to me

"In the 3 months I have been with MDJunction I have developed a sense of calmness. I now friends who do not judge me because I have been a mental mess at times. It is such a good feeling to have friends I can tell my deepest thoughts and always get back to me with their support. I have never seen a therapist for long periods of time. Right or wrong, this is the best therapy possible for me. Thanks Roy for getting this up and running and making such a difference in my life. Sara" (saralaurie)

Hi,

I am new to this forum and I have a question about cymbalta. I've been taking it for the past month now and in the beginning it helped with keeping the dull pain in my lower back down and it even helped my sciatica a little bit.

But in the past week or so, I am in tremendous pain mainly in the muscles around my waist. The muscles are so tight and I just feel I cannot move around normally.

Has anyone noticed symptoms of tightening and painful muscles with cymbalta?

I will be meeting my doc this afternoon, but I am sure she will ask me to continue with the medication.

But I am so sure it is from the med, because way in the beginning, it made my back numb and rigid.

I don't know what to do. I have two kids and this new pain is just making me so miserable.

Thanks

Roccym

Welcome Roccym,

If you look at the top right of the page (search forums), type in Cymbalta & it will give you a ton of topics to browse through. I hope this helps.
