    You're lucky it was so little weight. I've weaned off Cymbalta (after 6mos weaning process) but was more miserable at 30mg, headaches, itching

      Weaning of cymbalta is sooooo miserable. But it improves with time. I think when u gain 12 kilo grams u should tHink about it. But i cant know this weight gain is due to what. And yes it is worse at 30mg oh my God
