Duloxetine for migraine?

[Realneet]

Omg, it was the worst thing I’ve ever been on! My daughter visited and said it was like I was “high on speed” I was totally hyper and on fast forward all the time, I hardly slept, the pain from fibromyalgia was worse and I was having zapping pains through my body…

It’s difficult to come off apparently, needing several months of tapering off but I came off it cold turkey after 4 months as the side effects didn’t settle down and I continued getting the “brain zaps” and electric bolts in my body… but I’ve read that for some people it helps

So I’d suggest that you read up on both the negative and the positive, and look at people who’ve come off it and the effects, then make an informed choice - I didn’t do that, I just took it…
