It's been ten days since my last Cymbalta dose; I think I might be off it 100% now. This is twice as long as the last time I needed to take a dose to stave off withdrawal, and I'm not feeling any withdrawal. #AmysEDSUpdate
Cymbalta was contributing to my extreme muscle weakness. With that out of my system, my "EDS bodybuilding" should get easier.
And now that I ate a bunch of yogurt and got potassium into my body, my feet and ankles are no longer swollen like balloons
that was upsetting and uncomfortable but it was probably from my body adjusting to no Cymbalta (that medication affects potassium levels)

Doctors are so averse to actually troubleshooting medical problems I think I could get more help from an electrician
Or fromâget thisâa game developer that's also done QA haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
For all you new followers, this personal hashtag is where I chronicle my progress fixing my own chronic health problems and then talking doctors into signing the necessary paperwork
I don't know how I missed this reply, it is so perfect. This is exactly it. Ehlers-Danlos is slow motion body horror. Slow enough that doctors refuse to believe it's happening to you, severe enough that it is debilitating https://twitter.com/mackenziehnc/status/1278779920731328520
Cymbalta can also cause intestinal bleeding and I think I may see some long-term improvements from getting rid of that problem as well. Whew.
And to think, all this time what I needed was just a lil dab of testosterone to balance out my estrogen regimen
