Has it also increased your pulse rate and/or blood pressure? Extra norepinephrine can do that.
I attribute my incresed pulse (85 at rest) and increased blood pressure to Cymbalta. I take 60 mg.
But I don't know what to do. The Cymbalta makes me feel better and concentrate better.
I have had elevated blood pressure for a couple years. The Cymbalta made it a little higher. I am going to ask my doctor to switch me from my calcium channel blocker to a beta blocker and see if that helps with my anxiety and fast heart beat.
