I have the neuropathy in my feet & legs & I am not a diebetic. What kind meds is good for the pain. I am on 30 mg of Cymbalta & it did not help so today it was increased to 60 mg. I hope it helps & I hope the side effects are not bad.

@tigreyes2004 I also have neuropathy, mostly in my feet. There's a long list of medications for neuropathy and I've tried all of them. Either they didn't help or they had side effects. The only medication that has helped is morphine sulfate contin. For short term relief I have lidocaine cream, and it numbs the pain for a couple of hours. I mostly use it at bedtime, so I can get to sleep. Don't give up if Cymbalta doesn't work - as I said, there are many other medications to try.
