I am new to this whole fibromyalgia life. I have been on Cymbalta 60 for about 6 months now. I was also on Amitriptyline for 4 months. I have also put on about 40 pounds in those 4 months. I am a healthy eater, I was not exercising as I did in the past due to trying to figure out what is good and what isn't. But this weight gain is just out of control and freaking me out. I stopped the Amitriptyline last week so I have been off for one week. I am wondering has anyone else had weight gain and is it possible to get it off? I called the Dr. and asked to stop the Amitriptyline as soon as I realized the side effects. I do have Hypothyroid also and have been on medication for that for 15 years and they have tested my blood A LOT lately and it comes back looking ok. Any ideas? I am getting desperate!:-(
