Miss A Dose & Bad Side Effects!

Updated

I've been on Cymbalta for 3+ years & currently taking 90 mgs a day. I am a diabetic w/ fibromyalgia, lymes & a recovering alcoholic. It has been working quite well for me HOWEVER... if I miss a dose or even take it later in the day than I should...LOOK OUT!
I've had horrible side effect and symthoms such as: Dizzy-Swirly feeling in my head, Extreme fatigue, Depressed thoughts and emotions and that's just to name a few! I am posting this just as an FYI in case there is anyone else out there experiencing the same thing.

Have been on it for a few years now. Have been out for 5 days now and are currently experiencing similar side effects. Difficulty with swirling head and extreme dizziness. Very emotional, however nothing in a depression catagory. Only on this thread to see if this is a common side effect. Awaiting an appoint to see doc for refill. Wondering how long side effects will last if I can't get in soon.

I went from 60mg to the 90mg. And if I do not take it on time, taking it late or miss, then I experience migraines. I am letting you know now because I am suffering from one now unfortuately.
