I've been on this medication for about 4 days now but this morning I woke up my arms were burning I was really shaky then I started making my kids breakfast and all of a sudden my whole body went really really hot and I felt like I was going to pass out heart rate was 110 on my watch. Spoke to Dr he said it could be side effects and to try and stay on them or otherwise come off then completely but would that be worse. Someone please advise me

    I have hot flashes. I thought it may be menopause.Why do you take Duloxetine? I have been taking it for 8 months, now I am at 120 mg per day. I have not been back to normal.
