What were your side effects? When I was started on Gabapentin and Cymbalta 8/2012, two weeks in I began to feel as though there was small grains of something in my bed. Even though I checked the bed every night and day, I found nothing to explain what I was feeling. Though I not only bought a new mattress, had every piece of fabric in my bed cleaned, as well as the carpets, nothing stopped the sensations. Since that time, some 16 months ago the sensations have increased to burning all over my body with little relief. In addition, in March 2022 I became heat intolerant when I was in the sun one day and have not been able to get warm whether I am outside or inside without feeling as if I am being stung by a swarm of wasps. I’m addition, I can hardly stand for any kind of fabric to touch my body. Since I never experienced any of these sensations until I was put on both Cymbalta and Gabapentin at the same time, and even though I am no longer taking Cymbalta, I will always believe that they were the culprit. Needless to say, my quality of life is not what it once was.
