I am 72 & doc prescribed 60mg Cymbalta for temporary anxiety. I was surprised when my 8 years of lumbar pain & sciatica totally disappeared! Then at 6 mos the diarrhea started. Everyday 3-5 times a day. Total liquid. I lost 10 lbs in a month. My doctor had no idea what was causing it. Colonoscopy revealed microscopic colitis. I found this site & started weaning from 60mg to 30mg. Diarrhea eventually stopped & pain is not back. Nothing has worked for my pain except this. Thank goodness.
Did he say why the drug was very bad? Jw just started taking this past week.
