Best Drug Out there, but use cautionn   07/22/15
Reviewed by:     Location Not Given
This has been a wonder drug for me. I have all this energy now and it cut down my pain by at least 75%. However, it is VERY expensive even though I am on the generic now. I had to come off of it twice due to lack of money and it is worse to come off than anything. It is a living hell. You will feel pain like you never could imagine. For example, anything touching my skin felt like someone was constantly pouring boiling oil all over my body that continued to burn. I became suicidal and almost shot myself. I had horrible headaches, nausea, and synesthesia. However, as long as I can afford the drug it has been the wonder drug for me.

Not good for my symptoms   04/28/14
Reviewed by:     Location Not Given
I was gaining a lot of wight with Lyrica, so my doctor suggested I try Cymbalta. I weaned off Lyrica and on to Cymbalta and noticed that after two months the Cymbalta was not doing much at all for my pain or sleeplessness, so I weaned off it and went back to Lyrica. I did have the weird "brain zaps" when going off they Cymbalta, but it eventually went away.
