Latest on my recovery from Cymbalta

18 Nov
  • Can’t reach the psychiatrist assigned by my HMO. Left message at intake, and got zero response.
  • Still having physical symptoms. Intermittent nausea, constant headache, intermittent dizzy spells.
  • Brought my dog home. Laura graciously brought her last night. She assumed, rightly, all along that I would want my Taz back once I was able to care for her.

So, 2 negatives, one positive. Not the best report, I guess. But life happens, and there is no use sugar-coating it.

Withdrawal arrives

17 Nov

Well, the first of my withdrawal symptoms have arrived. I am fighting extreme sleepiness (somnolence) and severe dizziness. I guess the good news is that I am starving. I’m actually hungry for the first time in months. The bad news is that I don’t feel competent to go down to the kitchen.

And a customer is pushing me to deal with a problem while I am in this state.
