I take Cymbalta to help with the nerve pain and Lunesta to help sleep at night. The combination has been helpful.

@cmtg, Here's some information about duloxetine (brand name: Cymbalta) http://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/duloxetine-oral-route/description/drg-20067247 "Duloxetine is used to treat depression and anxiety. It is also used for pain caused by nerve damage associated with diabetes (diabetic peripheral neuropathy). Duloxetine is also used to treat fibromyalgia (muscle pain and stiffness) and chronic (long-lasting) pain that is related to muscles and bones."

You should talk with your doctor about what is causing your earaches to know what treatment would be effective.
