Anyone have bad anxiety???
OK today is one week since surgery. I am very emotional and having some anxiety issues that are causing my heart to beat a little fast. Clamy hands and feet. Anyone one have a prior anxiety problems before. I have taken cymbalta for 2 years prior for anxiety. Went for my week check up at family doctor and got all heart racing and flush. Anyone else out there have these issues as we are all different. other than that i am feeling ok so far though:)
Hey I have had axiety problems for a long while and I too take cymbalta.After surgery I had to go my dose uped because I started having alot more attacks.I dont know if my body was absorbing it all from the lesser dose or what but now that I got it uped I am good to go.I still have a bad day here and there but all and all its good.May have to go talk to your regular doctor.Good luck hope you get it taken care of
I have horrible general anxiety disorder. I too take Cymbalta and I also take Serax. PM me if you want more information or want to just talk/vent. I totally get the anxiety thing on every single stupid level. I HATE IT!!!!!!!
Take care of yourself. It will get better. Mine was really out of control immediately post op but did settle down some after a couple weeks.

I am pre-op by a few months (probably August or Sept) and this is a biggie for me. I have pretty intense general anxiety / claustrophobia. The psych doc for my pre-op eval said to have my surgeon put me on a regular regimen of xanax for before and after the surgery instead of how I take it now (just as needed). I am not too worried about pain, but the thought of a panic attack after surgery scares the *&**& out of me!!
