May I ask what meds you are on Mrs.D? And the cause of your neuropathy? You seem to be the foremost expert on this forum and I am wondering what works for you  |
Other pain killers do not have this interaction.... only Tramadol.
Just because some professionals think this is rare... is not a good reason not to pay attention to it. I had a rare event from a common blood pressure pill... it was almost fatal.... and my doctor thought it was "rare" and that didn't help me one bit.
Here are links for tramadol and Cymbalta.... listing the
% of reported side effects to the FDA. It is thought that only a very small % are ever reported however...so the
numbers on this site only reflect the reported ones:
