Good Morning. I was referred to a pain management doctor in February 2025, for my idiopathic neuropathy. I had tried Gabatentin, Lyrica, and almost all over the counter meds. I was so depressed after a failed surgery which caused more pain. My family didn’t recognize me, I didn’t recognize myself. I felt like I was going down the rabbit hole…didn’t care if I just laid in pain and felt sorry for myself. And that made me even more depressed as I wanted my old personality and will to live back. Happy to share more background, move forward this Pain Management doctor suggested Duloextine 60 mg….starting with 20mg…increasing over 6 -8 weeks to reach 60 mg. After one week of 20 mg, I was a different person. I actually wanted to live…now the antidepressant hasn’t helped with neuropathy pain, however with this medication I am able to handle it. Come up with solutions, and routines that help with pain. I have read all the negatives, but at age 75 and managing this horrid illness…I praise the drug and what it does for me.
