Ok, well I went back to the rheumatologist today. My vitamin d level is up some....3 months ago it was at 4 and he wants it to be 30. Still have a lot of muscle pain due to fibro. He wants to change the depression meds that I am on which is celexa to cymbalta. He says he has had some luck with it helping fibro patients with the depression as well as the fibro pain. What I would like to find out is if there is anyone here that has taken cymbalta and if so how did you or are you doing on it? I am kind of nervous about it as my sister and and my daughter in law were both on it before and had some pretty bad side affects, so much that they had to quit taking it.
I tried to get the doc to go ahead and try lyrica on me but he would not, not until I have tried cymbalta.
I am so sick and tired of hurting. I wish I knew where I could go to see a doctor that deals with natural ways of healing people. But, I can't seem to find anyone in my area that does this.
One of my main problems is that I have a very bad time absorbing vitamins and minerals that my body needs because of the gastric bypass that I had done 4 years ago. And I do believe that that could be the underlying cause to a lot of my problems.
Anyway, I am frustrated beyond belief tonight. Can't sleep...again. So, I decided to come here to see if I could get some input because I know there is a wealth of knowledge from folks on this board.
Thanks in advance.
