Gabapentin and Cymbalta

@jeanniem I am on 3600mg of Gabapentin that isn't helping the burning pain in my feet so last week my Neuro added 30mg of duloxetine and it is tearing up my stomach: bloating, gas, diarrhea. I already have an Inflammatory bowel disease so I can't wait this out to see if it will go away. I have an appointment today, so I am going to ask for an alternative to add to the gabapentin or see if I need to taper off and start something else entirely.

I have bleeding ulcers & terrible stomach & I take 60mg. of Cymbalta.
I guess everybody is different.

I am so sorry you are having to deal with that. I ended up not starting the duloxetine. I am also currently not taking Gabapentin. I am on Baclofen for the muscle spasms and just dealing with the nerve pain. I found that taking the two together caused too much fatigue and brain fog. No one wants a counselor with brain fog!
