I’ve noticed that I haven’t really noticed the eye pain in the last week or so and I couldn’t help but wonder “is it connected to going off the Cymbalta”. So I googled Cymbalta and eye pain and sure enough eye pain is listed as a side effect of Cymbalta (one of those call your Dr immediately if you have type side effects), along with blurred vision and decreased vision.
I’m going to keep monitoring it for the next few weeks, perhaps the trip to the specialist I have scheduled at the end of December won’t be needed.
I’m not sure how I missed this list of side effects in all my searching earlier, but it does make sense. The eye pain returned a few weeks after I got to the full dosage of Cymbalta and it seems like it’s been decreasing since I cut the dosage down. I still notice some pain but it’s very slight in comparison to what it was. It may be that it’s not related at all and just coincidental… it may just be some unexplainable thing as is the case with so many Fibro symptoms.
