Guest guest Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 How is it going with the LDN? What dose did you start on and what day did you start? Cymbalta has certainly helped me but I know others haven't had good luck with it. But isn't that the way it is with everything? hugs)Sharon Re: side effects of antidepressants It seems that people have problems more with Paxil or Wellbutrin but some people tolerate it very well. I was on Zoloft and it worked great until it stopped working. Then I was on Prozac and that worked great. I was able to stop it in 2004 but when I started having such severe nocturnal spasms and leg pain in the winter of 2005/2006 I was thankful my doctor suggested Cymbalta. It's an anti-depressant and also works on diabetic neuropathy. I don't have diabetes but my nocturnal leg pain is similar. It was a miracle for me. Before I started on Cymbalta I was in the worst pain you could imagine and I would wake up crying night after night, dreaming about suicide. It was the worst period of my life. Cymbalta has taken the pain down to half of what it was and LDN has taken it down further. Each person is different and we need different therapies. I wish natural therapies would always work. I am, however, very thankful for the medications that let me lead the life I am able to lead. Klonopin helps me too. I take it in combination with Baclofen to keep the spasms and spasticity at a livable level.Sharon .. Be a PS3 game guru.Get your game face on with the latest PS3 news and previews at Yahoo! Games.
