    Yeah took it for a few months for nerve pain. Had no effect on me. Different for everybody though.

    What I found worked best for my nerve pain was tramadol. Took away some of the pain and made me relax. Wasn't a bad feeling when I was struggling and feeling anxious.

    I would focus on the TMS approach, medications will only perpetuate the symptoms.
    No better medicine!
    And btw I did try Cymbalta, it is just an antidepressive, so it helps you cope better with the pain, but not a pain killer
