I just found out from my doctor that one of the side effects of Cymbalta is it can raises your cholesteral. I wasn't told this when she first suggested I try it. It is seldom listed in the side effects either As usual I have this side effect since taking it my cholesterol has taken a huge jump although I am very careful what I eat and get exercise. Now the decision is wether to take the statins for cholesterol, which I really don't want to do because of the side effects, or try to find another med for my drepession. I am allergic to many of the anti depressants.
