Sorry don't have anything usefull to say as I don't know the Cymbalta stuff, but just wanna wish you a big fat welcome to the board.

It is good to hear it is working for you, must be an enormous relief after 5 years of continues pain.

Could you eleborate on that, as your story might be helpfull to others.

Regards, Pascal.
