Hi there. Today is day 6 for me on 30mg cymbalta. In two days I will increase my dosage to 60mg. I'm feeling anxious, hot/cold light headaches and fatigue. Someone please tell me that these symptoms go away and it's still early for the medicine to actually be working. I NEED THIS TO WORK!!

Hi sandii100, These symptoms WILL go away. But you have to believe that. Positive thoughts are essential at the beginning of new medications. Everyone is different in their response to meds, but Cymbalta can and does start working for some within a week. At least that is that they can feel a small difference. However, and there is always a however, symptoms will still be prevalent while the medicine is taking effect in reaching the efficacy dose. Increasing to 60mg will provide you with the amount you need for it to work.
Hang in there sandii, at the end you will be glad you did. Feel better....
I'm on day ten or so. 30 mgs, Fatigue is slowly getting better. Headaches are almost gone, however the lack of appetite/ nausea is sticking around. I've lost 2.5 kgs in 10 days!. I'm at least giving it a full month.
