Barb - Steroids always make me feel so horrible. I totally understand your issues with ADs. I've tried 3. Cymbalta was my 1st one and while it worked great on the nerve pain, it made me have aggressive thoughts. I was on it for 3 days and refuse to take it anymore. Then I was on Paxil for about 1 1/2 year until my affect became flat. Then it was Celexa which has worked well until recently. So, we decided on Paxil as it does have a calming effect and right now, that is what I need. This chronic pain is getting to me and I don't want to be in this pain cycle anymore.

Kelly & Sally - Is Prozac fairly mild? I only know of a few people who are on it and don't know much about it.
