Title: Tingling on both sides of face
Post by Tara Ann on Apr 21^st, 2012 at 2:08pm

I don't know if this is Ch related or not? I'm currently on topamax (100mg) I'm having major issues with insomnia. And also weaning off from 60 mg of Cymbalta (was on it for about 2-3 yrs) now down to 30 mgs every other day. Do you think this is a side affect of the Cymbalta weaning? I've never had this happen... It started yesteday. I've also got some kind of upper respiratory thingy going on. I know ya'll arent doctors.

I plan on calling my gp on monday. I know I shouldn't have put all this crap off this long. Just it's kinda weirding me out.

*edited to add this isn't a numb feeling... just a tingly feeling

Good grief.. don't wait till Monday.. call NOW... could be just a side effect of winging off, but ... that's why the doc gets the big bucks... he should have an answering service with someone on call..

Or call the pharmacy and ask the pharmicist...

I've never taken Cymbalta so I don't know how it works...

Hope the tingling quits.. (and hope it's nothing) :-*

Well it's much milder today Barbara. .. Hubby is home today. (He's a trucker) So atleast it's not just me and the kiddo's. I've been searching around the web. The "Mrs. WebMd" (as hubby calls me lol) in me is thinking its the upper respiratory thingy going on. I know if I call the on call doc will just tell me to go to the ER and thats just bullshit. I don't want to waste my day there. ESP with hubby home. These small town docs always pass the buck. If I ever find a decent doc I will be the most thankful person on earth! I have been to so many diff docs throughout the yrs (gps and neuros) .. I might even KISS a good docs feet! ;D

Could be GAD.
