Has anyone ever been on Duloxetine (Cymbalta) for nerve pain?

Hello @besmith57 - once I hit the 60mg - both am and pm, my stomach - that had been causing mild to middling issues - seemed to go into overdrive.
However - at that level - and possibly because of the titrating - it thankfully didn't last very long. From the first low level of Duloxatine, to everything settling down took approximately 8 - 10 weeks. With the addition of the Bupronorphine the pain was taken to a level that I could handle….😊

Thanks for replying. I take 60 mg a day. My PCP upped it to 90mg and I was so dizzy the next day I couldn't walk. I went back to 60mg. I also take Lexapro. So are you taking 60mg in the morning and 60mg at night? I was a little confused about your dosage. Since I've only been on it for a month and a half maybe there is hope the nausea will go away. I will google the Buprenorphine because I don't know what that is. I'm doing PT also, but that doesn't seem to be helping either. I am taking it with food now thinking that might help. I'm sorry you've had to deal with pain for so long. What a great love story you have!! Congratulations!
