> Does her pdoc have any suggestions? Maybe providgil? Sorry about the weight gain . Has she had her thyroid tested and you also? Love Phillipa and good luck to you both. I can see why you'd be reluctant to suggest meds to your sister. Sometimes the meds that work for family members also work for others in the Same Family.
Her pdoc wants her to try Adderall as an add on to the Cymbalta.Don't know if she's had her thyroid tested, but I've gained serious weight on many meds, and I've had my throid tested many times. It's normal.
I'm reluctant to suggest meds because I'm so outrageously sensitive to meds that I can't honestly send her down any of the many paths I've taken with any real hope. If she has anywhere near the same experiences I have had, then I feel fearful for the future of our family.
