Welcome to NeuroTalk:

Sometimes it takes a while to get a handle on new posters.

But right off the bat I see a therapeutic duplication:
Savella + Cymbalta?

I'd look at this seriously. No need for both. In fact I'd get rid of the Cymbalta since it can cause liver problems.
Savella is the drug of choice now for Fibro. I'd seriously discuss this drug overlap with your doctor. I don't think it is safe or necessary.

I wonder about your PN and environmental triggers. Landscaping?
Are you exposed to Roundup or other herbicides or pesticides?
These can cause neurological damage. New information on RoundUp links it to Parkinson's Disease now. Our PD forum has a post on it, recently.

Can you tell us about these "spinal lesions" ? This sounds ominous.
