Default Cymbalta question

My new GP seems to really want me to give Cymbalta a try. Between my Neurologist and myself, I tried Gabapentin (didn't like it), and am now on 50mg daily of Nortriptyline, which pretty much takes care of my pins, needles & burning. I've started to augment with Tramadol in the AM (50-100mg) for painful ball of foot, and now I'm pretty good for the day.

Since people & sources online usually refer to just "pain relief", are there any folks finding Cymbalta specifically helps with the more general type of pain like I get in my forefeet? My forefeet don't bother me much unless I'm on my feet. If you are augmenting the Cymbalta for that type of pain, I'd appreciate your sharing with me. Any info is appreciated.
