care because of this? A few months ago I got into some legal issues over some problems I had with cymbalta my dr. took me off of this without weening me first it is antidepressent but used to help me with pain management and my dr. was subpoenaed to my hearing. Back when I had these issues I called the phone nurse and she refused to help me although I explained the horrible side effects the meds gave me. I think this is the real reason for my Dr's Decision but not sure. Even in my follow up appt. he agreed the meds cause my problems. I'm 28 and had to file bankrupt due to my time off work. From age 22 till now i've had 3 surguries on my same disc in my lower back and it has cause my much grief i've never had a criminal history until I got charged with battery (for slapping someone) over my cymbalta withdraw and it sounds stupid but unless you've had horrible side effects from medication withdraw then you might understand, plus I was also prescribed 50 mcg of fentanyl pain patch which was also horrible.

I really sympathize with you, this past summer I had horrible side effects with medication and also need to file bankruptcy because of the affect it had on my ability to work. Unfortunately, unless you have insurance they may be able to refuse you. The Hippocratic oath is only for life/death emergencies or other catastrophic events. Best of luck in your rebuilding process.

Same problem. Back injury in 1991. I was on Cymbalta and Antivan. My dr. had me on 6mg of Antivan and did not ween me off I went through terrible withdrawls and am now back looking for a drug pusher(the legal kind). And my cymbalta was just dropped because after I said something he refused to see me now I am having aheack of a time finding a dr. that takes my insurance. I also had a patch and it was terrible. Good Luck to you
