Is anyone using Cymbalta for Fibromyalgia? Marinol for appetite? [View all]
My rheumatologist just prescribed Cymbalta for Fibromyalgia. It's actually working pretty well. It's alleviating some of the pain and I dare say I have a bit more energy. I still have issues around Lupus and malnutrition due to malabsorption. I have Marinol and it's supposed to boost my appetite. It did at first but now not so much.
Is anyone else taking any of these two?
* I have Lupus, Fibro, Chronic Fatigue, Trousseaus Syndrome, Reynaud's, and ITP. My blood levels aren't stable and I often need Iron infusions and whole blood (packed red blood cells) transfusions.
