"cymbalta is a miracle. prescribed for depression and anxiety and saw results within 24 hours (yes, unusual). a smile was glued to my face the next day with colleagues asking why i was so happy. side effects were mild and disappeared quickly. been on for 6 months now. my lower back pain is gone (suffered for 14 months while seeing doctors) and my pms symptoms and cramps are non-existent. i used to cry at the drop of the hat, bite the head off of my husband, and get easily irritated and agitated at everyone and everything. my husband claims that i&#039;ve never been nicer. i thank my doctor for having the foresight to suggest it to me."
