Constant sickness...

Hi all I suffer with Fybro as well as other illnesses and have been taking Duloxetine for about 10 weeks changed from Sertraline and Mertazepine which piled on the weight.

I have been feeling sick constantly and headaches mostly a dizzy feeling with it. I have read at few of your posts and wondering if I should go back to my original drug Citalopram for my anxiety depression.

I would rather be in pain as they don't seem to touch that anyway.

Be great to hear from any of you :0)

Defo see your GP if it is reaction to meds he/ she may change meds or may give you something to stop dizziness etc but with ever more bugs going round causing similar always check GP lol not that I think a bug would last this long hope not anyway xxxxx

I take topmax for silent migraines it helps with nausea and stops the world spinning most of the time doesn't do much for other symptoms but I wouldn't give it up xxxxxx

I had terrible reaction to Duloxetine. Shakes twitches etc. Went on gabapentin and amatryptiline at night. Pain enough you don’t need sickness as well. Good advice see gp for advice.
