Hi. I'm sorry for all your pain. They were talking about the stimulator for me too or a catheter. The catheter was so that I could do extreme reabilitation on my legs that are my issue without so much pain. I know you fear the Cymbalta and I understand as I had bad issues with neurontin,lyrica,elavil but cymbalata was fine. I'm up to 60 and the first few night were bad of nausea but now ok. Just make sure you take it with food. I'm not sure of the tests you have had but some of mine I had repeated and it then showed more. Feel better and take care
