Dr appt today..... Mood
Thursday, May 22, 2008 | A Frustrating story

What I was hopeing was allegies is really sinus and ear infections...

was headed to pneumonia..yuck....antibiotics....Dr. insists he changes

my Neurontin to cymbalta....I know they feel fibro is a siesure disorder...and neurontin was for my neuropathy...and was causing me to have parkinson like symptoms in my hands....he wants me off the stuff for fear it may become permanent...Dad had same dr. and had trembling hands....I am losing ability to write long hand....but I do not do well on anti depressants...I hate them and besides when we were done fighting about whether I would take it or not poor Dr. Larry forgot to tell me how much or when to take the stuff....I guess I will chance being up all night and just swollow it....I'm miserable any way.....cough choke....not a happy day....

    I am sorry, the people responding to threads about cymbalta seemed to get relief from it. I hope your reaction is a positive one. I am thinking of you and praying for the best outcome for you. Hugs

    If it will just let me use my hands and walk a bit more I will be happy with it.....though I am opposed to anti depressants FOR ME...all they ever got me was a big BUTT....and I felt like I was stoned all the time.....this stuff don't seem to make me feel stoned....I'll hide and watch...thanks Honey for the positive reinforcement.....
    Hugs
