I took Cymbalta for fibromyalgia. I was only on 20mg since I'm very small. It raised by blood pressure too much and didn't help the pain. I hope that you have better luck. Wish you the best.

@loribethp That’s what I’m concerned about . I had to stop Diclofenac because it dangerously raised my BP. No NSAIDS of any kind for me since.
But dulixetine is not an NSAID, so I’m hoping that doesn’t happen.
So far I’ve gone from a starting dose of 30mg to a maintenance dose of 60mg a day . It and the Gabapentin 300 mg three times a have worked wonders!
Time will tell.
I’ll check my BP for a while and report any changes to my primary care. Thanks for your post . Best wishes to you.
