Default Nortriptylene vs Cymbalta preferences

I've been taking 50mg daily of Nortriptylene for my neuropathy, but it doesn't touch the "folded sock" pain I have just behind my toes. It does help with the burning & pins. I went to my new Primary Care Dr for the first time yesterday & he says that in his experience people have had better relief with Cymbalta. I know that if Cymbalta doesn't work for you, it is tough to get off of. I also take a Tramadol a few days a week for the forefoot pain, which doesn't bother me unless I'm on my feet or walking.

Anyone who's taken both Nortriptylene and Cymbalta & find one works better for you or can just tell me your experience with them?
