    If I take a multivitamin tablet do I really have to eat?
    So for the last few days I've had no appetite at all.. im on cymbalta tablets and it's a good thing because I have been trying to lose weight. I've been sick today with vomiting and bring up everything I eat so now I'm terrified to eat as I don't want to get sick in work tomorrow if I eat anything. If I just take multivitamin tablets is that enough or do I actually have to eat?

    And what foods can I eat tat won't make me vomit?

    It isn't exactly good that you are not eating, on cymbalta and trying to lose weight. Your sysrtem is going to backfire and probably is now seeing that you are vomitting. Do you have diarrhea as well ?

    No, you can't just take multivitamin tablets because you can't eat. That will only make your condition worse and probably make your stomach rebel with being very irritated as well as unsettled.

    Do you have an anxiety disorder or are bipolar, is that why you are taking cymbalta? Did your doctor just recommend this medication and you were newly diagnosed with anxiety or bipolar?

    If you answer yes, then I suggest you see your doctor again to get this sorted out before you become really ill, Missl it could be you are having a bad reaction to this med, or if you have been on it for while, it is probably the time to switch meds.

    I'm suffering from depression and anxiety for over 2 years now and no medication has worked. Yes I have diarrhoea as well. I will see the doctor tomorrow. Thanks

    Better now then never. You may become dehydrated if you wait much longer and then you will be in worse shape.

    Good, Missy, I am glad you will go the doctor to get sorted out.
