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
Yes, I mentioned this to my internist. She is like"let's get our comfortable." I know that she is trying to help, but I am faced with figuring out long term which medicine works. I already noticed constipation with Lyrica. I was changed from Neurotin to Lyrica because of the burning pain. I guess I should have waited?

The pain is just so hard, as you know.

Thanks so much for taking the time to respond.
