Hi baba, If you were just placed on Lyrica, I humble suggest you get a notebook and keep a journal w/dates and symptoms. I know that pain will drive a person to shovel pills by the handfull. I did it myself and am still adjusting medications after 18 months. My thoughts are if you go on two new pills at once, and good bad or ugly you won,t know whick one is responsible for the change in symptoms. You can do a search for the word Cymbalta at the top of this page and read other peoples experiences. I remember that coming off Cymbalta was a trip for some. Good Luck, Ken in Texas
