Lightbulb you need

a careful taper if you decide to discontinue Cymbalta.

And placement of the patches should be:
1) 1/2 patch at the inguinal exit
2) the other half, at the top of the thigh where it meets the abdomen, just below where the leg bends.

Placement at the place where you feel the pain, does not work for MP.
You need to intercept the nerve higher up.

There is a drawing in that link I gave you to aapf.org
