Sunrise, I ended up calling my doc on Monday. He told me to step down from the WB and he put me on a stimulant, vyvanse. Even with stepping down on WB I'm still having moments of dizziness but they are def less severe. I guess that I freaked out about those side effects cause a couple years back I actually was on WB for a year with virtually no side effects. But I wasn't taking cymbalta at the time and I'm sure that has an impact. One thing that I forgot to mention in my original post is that I actually did a sleep study even after taking the meds becaise I was not feeling rested. My sleep doc told me that I either have sleep apnea or idiopathic hypersomnia. He put me on a cpap but it hasn't been helping that either. The treatment for hypersomnia is a stimulant which now when I think about it is why my psychatrist jumped so quickly to prescribe me one.

Honestly I have no idea what my doc plans on doing with the cymbalta. He hasn't mentioned taking me off it even with the other meds. I guess it's something that I have to work out between him and my therapist cause I can't take this medicine for the rest of my life. We've been very focused on the present, cause I wasn't thinking much about my future. Guess I know what our next conversation will be about!

Odee-thanks for the info about the water. I actually had no idea that WB made you dehydrated. That actually explains a lot about the way I was feeling. I was drinking water but def not 8 cups a day!
