Yes, Duloxetine was the last prescription drug I took. All the other’s made me lethargic /dizzy, unable to function. I thought Duloxetine was my answer. It took my pain level (an 8 ) to a lower pain level (5-6) and so helped with my depression from this crazy condition. UNTIL, I developed severe intestinal problems - which went on for 3-4 months and I did not want to believe it was the Duloxetine. Pain Management & Gastro doctor convinced me to wean off it. Amazing all my stomach issues went away. To date, I am not taking any prescription drugs except Zolpidem at night to sleep. Manage the pain during the day which starts our on the low scale, and by late afternoon, I want to scream…and then I just wait until I can go to bed and pop a zolpidem , longing for some peace. Sleeping pill gives me 5-6 hours. I am thank for that.
