Just want to complain/vent/whine

I just down right don't feel well..
ive had more sugar than usual the last few days, so im pretty sure its probably that.
I've also started my monthly bestfriend ( joke, of course ), sorry, TMI.

ive been getting what feel like hot flashes, feel flush in the face, cheeks look red, feel very warm, sometimes I start sweating. I've been feeling like dirt since I started it... normally I don't... seriously don't know whats up... ugh..

its going on week three or so of Cymbalta, not too bad, I definitely don't feel as though its working 100%, I also started out on the lowest dose possible.

I go to see my doctor tomorrow, for a follow up from my ED visit two weeks ago. i'm going to mention to her.

I go to get an Endoscopy the 7th, ive been getting heartburn a lot more the last week, so im very thankful for that. This morning when I burped, gross, I know. I got some palpitations, so im kinda finally feeling like this is actually due to my stomach, and its obnoxious problems.

I go Thursday to pick up my event monitor finally! I called the cardiologist office this morning, and was like, um yea.. I was in two weeks ago, and I was told itd only be a week until I got a phone call... I was wondering if you could tell me when id be able to pick up the monitor... she goes, oh, I don't think we have a wait anymore... weird... hmm... let me check... oh yea, we can get you in on Thursday at 1:45...

FINALLY! kinda sad when they were suppose to call me in a week and I ended up having to call...


anyway, thanks for reading my pointless post, haha.

I'm so sorry you're feeling yuck. It stinks that we have to call, and make sure our doctor's staff are doing what they're supposed to be doing.

I hope your even monitor won't show any problems, and will help relieve your mind. I get mine on Oct. 21st when I go in for my echo cardiogram.

Hang I there. We are here for you. Vent anytime.

I never feel this bleh with my period! I guess it doesn't help that I'm stressed, and STILL sick! ):

Hi Melissuh

Sorry to hear you are not feeling well at the moment I hope you start to see an improvement soon there must be something in the air at the moment as a lot of us seem to be having a tough time at the moment.

I can't really comment on the periods as I don't have them lol but I do get man flu if that counts.

You are still quite early on with your Cymbalta so you still could be getting some side effects but these should settle soon for you but I would say if your not better in a couple of weeks to go and see your doctor. I found Cymbalta to be a good medication it worked really well on my anxiety and depression and had the added bonus of helping me with my chronic pain condition but it gave me night sweats so I changed in the end after a couple of years.

Keep us posted.
