So I find myself awoken early Sunday morning with intense pain in my upper right abdonmine and end up in the ER because the pain is intense and isn't letting up one bit. While I was in the ER they did an ultrasound - ironically almost exactly a year to the date I was in the hospital for another abdominal ultrasound before I went on Cymbalta because they wanted to rule out my GI symptoms weren't a little bug I picked up from my travels abroad. Before I went on Cymbalta, no gallstones and everything was fine. Nine months after being on it and a good month and a half of horrible withdrawal and I've got gallstones. Has anyone else had a problem with them after Cymbalta use? During the last few months of use and during withdrawal I was so nauseous most of the time that I didn't want to eat or went for periods of fasting and then ate much more when I felt up to it. So my theory is that perhaps it was the rapid weight gain and then periods of fasting and feasting that caused the stones. It's absolutely frustrating - I want my health back and I want my body back!
