hello, my psychiatrist increased my dosage of Cymbalta to see if that would help, as my depression not improving. I never have had high cholestersol before? and I am mostly pescatarian and eat very little meat, just red meat maybe once every 2 months. but I went to my pcp and my cholesterol isscary high! and also I am now very anemic. I am not sure if this has anything to do increasing the Cymbalta. has anyone experienced high cholesterol on anti-depressants? thank you!
