the answer to you questions is that people get the same side effects that they do on lower doses.
I am a psychiatrist and has used cymbalta at 90mg and 120mg in very select patients.
I only increase it over 60mg if the patient is having no side effects. If they start to have side effects at these higher doses, i have them lower the dose back to where they were. Those who were able to tolerate it felt better.

Does Cymbalta contain blood a thinner?
No... it's not an official side effect. However it shouldn't be mixed with blood thinners and new side-effects are still being reported. I have been on Cymbalta for a few years (shortly after it came out) and the known side effects then (2005) was a much shorter list than it is today. I've had problems with stomach bleeding from taking it with ibuprofen as well as syncope due from severe hypotension(low blood pressure) because of the cymbalta. Also, the higher the dose, the more pronounced the side effects are. I am prescribed the highest dose (120mg daily) but I typically only take 60-90mg.
Can lyrica and Cymbalta be taken together?
I have been on Cymbalta (90mg) for a few years and have had severe problems with insomnia. The Ambien that my doctor prescribed me wasn't working, even if I took the highest dosage available. So, she prescribed 25mg Seroquel to help me sleep. It worked, but then I started having what they call Restless Leg Syndrome. I'm not sure if that was caused by the Seroquel alone or the mixture of Cymbalta and Seroquel. Needless to say, I quit taking the Seroquel and my RLS symptoms disappeared. As far as I know, the two can be taken together since my doctor specifically prescribed them both to me.
