Hi! I take the Cymbalta but very low dose. Did not want to try Gabapentin. Not diabetic either. I don’t have pain all the time. Shooting shock episodes or creeping type discomfort. My feet just feel terribly dry and ache at times. Plus, they are numb. At night I take Tizanidine at night to take edge off so I can sleep. Listen to music in bed and rub feet, legs and calves with Frankincense and Myrr. I googled feet and hand exercises and found things to do when watching TV. Going to try reflexology massages in about 4 weeks! My doctor gave me a prescription for Lidocaine cream -30 mg. Have not tried it yet as my pain episodes are tolerable.

Hope this helps! 🙏

I’ve tried all the creams and nothing helps. I’m taking the Gabapentin because Lyrica made me have seizures and Nortriptyline makes me feel like someone is stabbing my.

What is the medicine you take at night? I’m taking 300 mgs of Gabapentin, 100 mgs 3 time per day and 60 ‘mgs of Cymbalta in the morning with my seizure medicines. Keppra and Clonazepam. They also have me on Quetiapine.
