I realize that it is both unnecessary and redundant to caution forum members about meds and SE's but I saw this info just recently and thought it is worth a post. If it's a post I missed then I apologize in advance for duplicative clutter but remember I'm old and I'm slow.

The link below is a pretty fair synopsis of the current state of affairs re: the FDA and Lilly re: the claims made for Cymbalta (Duloxetine) and nerve pain, specifically the effectiveness and the potential for SE's. I'm sure there are other links too and there probably will be follow-up to this in the future.
