I'm glad that's working for you Susanne. Personally I much prefer Cymbalta for the muscle pain. I find it on par with the morphine at relieving that but with less side effects. I don't find either work very well for nerve related pain though which is why I'm looking for a compound cream.

I found Cymbalta to cause me to be very tired and interfered with thinking. Also, did nothing to help the neuropathy pain.

I, like Suzanne, am also taking Oxycontin and Percocet for break thru. They have helped me to be able to function; but as Suzanne wrote, this is an individual decision.
