@sarahintexas gabapentin and Cymbalta are both medications that should be taken daily as usually prescribed. When taking the it takes at the very least two weeks to see the benefits. Those two drugs do not help acutely for pain.

@mech
I have been on Gabapentin for several years and it has helped with pain.

@lmpa65 Thank you Laura! Thankfully I haven't yet needed to start my Gaba or Cymbalta prescriptions, as the Plaquenil has reduced my joint and fascia pain by about 50% over the last 3.5 weeks. Hoping for more relief as I go!
