I am also having ever so mild chest pain but it is stated as a side effect.

I am on Cymbalta. I was up to 120 but since it was not helping I went down to 60. I started at 30 at dinner and worked the way up. At first I was so nauseous on it I basically lived in the bathroom. My pain doctor said the side effects usally lessen within 2 weeks and they did. Sometimes for me with pain and med relief it is hard to tell because sometimes I am just in a flare where meds can only do so much. That is why now I try to give meds time. I would talk to your doctor about the chest pain. I hope you get relief
