I couldn't take Cymbalta. I was included in the multi class action law suit with them. I suffered shock like symptoms in brain, hallucinations at night, mostly auditory. My symptoms were documented 2 years before the lawsuit presented itself. That is a drug that you can't just stop suddenly. You must be weaned off of it. I take gabapentin and hydrocodone for my pain. I just started back the gabapentin after being off of it for a year because I'm hoping it takes away these internal vibrations. So far so good.
