I’m on 60 mg of Cymbalta for several months and still no relief from back pain. Interested to see what dose other people are on that relieved their pain

I take 60mg my pain is nerve oriented my understanding is that Cymbalta works on neuropathy but not all pain

@aus12 after having a failed back surgery last year and having a lot of nerve damage to the back I take the lowest doses of gabapentin, duloxetine and and hydrocodone , and I put a Salon Pas pain patch on at night so I can at least sleep in my recliner i get more relief from the patch Han he meds I feel like I do anyways ! After seeing 3 additional surgeons being told they can’t do anything and I just contacted Mayo Clinic and got denied my MRI clearly shows a pinched nerve at L3 and Pseudoarthrosis and they all say nothing is wrong!

aus12, you've taken it 6 months with no relief?? I'm wondering why you haven't gone back to your doctor and told them it's not working and demand something else! I went thru this....for anxiety and sleep issues. If a med the doctor prescribed didn't work or gave me side effects I couldn't put up with, I was back at the doctors office, asking to try something else! You don't give up until you get the right medication for your issues! Good luck! ❤️
