Good evening @esperanza22.....you are not and never will be a bother. Meloxicam is for arthritis and is an NSAID if I recall correctly. What other prescription are they sending? Was it explained to you? The Duloxetine also called Cymbalta is just for anxiety, depression, and nerve pain. The Gabapentin is mostly for the tingles and needle-like nerve pain that seems to ramp up in the evening. I have replaced some with a THC rich Releaf Balm from P and B. (more info if you are interested) One of my decisions yet to be made is how to continue to reduce the needle-like discomfort without using medications with known side effects. Good luck you say. I agree.
May you have comfort and ease.
Chris

Hi Chris,
You seem to be very knowledgeable. I went off the Meloxicam and now the neurologist put me on Methyiprednisolone for six days for my back pain. This week I am going for an injection for my back, think it is lidocane. I guess I have to keep trying whatever they throw at me!
Thanks for corresponding with me.
Stay well!!
