Hi~

First of all--welcome "home"!

I also was on Cymbalta 60mg 2 x's/day. That was about a year and a half ago. It helped for a very short time, then either it quit working, or my Neuropathy got worse, and we had to try different meds.

Actually I had heard on BT1's Peripherial Neuropathy forum that that dose was possible and brought it to my Mayo Neuro's attention. After doing some checking she found that yes, indeed that it was possible. The information collected from the clinical trials stated that there was no difference between 60mg/day and 120mg/day however.

My opinion on your question is, hey, if it improves your health in any way, I'd say it's worth the "fight and arrgravation".

My insurance covered Cymbalta prescribed at 120mg/day, so it might be individual companies.

Good luck and keep us posted!

Hugs,
Jan
