Lyrica or Cymbalta?

So I've been wondering... How many of you have tried either one of these drugs and what kind of results did you see?Personally, I have taken cymbalta for about 4 years now. I take 60mg twice a day. that's higher than the standard dosage but, my doc and I found that's what worked for me. He wanted me to try Lyrica when it came out but decided against it because I already have problems with fluid retention and that is one side effect of the drug. I couldn't tell the cymbalta was working until I…See More

Hi everyone -- from North Olmsted, OH

Hi everyone....my name is Lois and I have been diagnosed with Fibro for about 10 years now. In addition to Fibro, I've had 7 back surgeries, am diabetic, have nerve damage in my legs, polycystic ovaries, have a ton of food allergies, and spastic colon and IBS. Three back surgeries were this late last year and on New Years Eve. The pain clinic implanted a neurostimulator to try to control my pain -- but alas, I got a staph infection and they removed the entire thing on New Years Eve! It really…See More

Welcome to Fibromyalgia is Real.

Hello. My name is Jennipher and I am a Fibromyalgia sufferer. If you have this disease then you know what I mean when I say "there are days I could really use someone to talk to who knows what I'm going through". That is my goal in creating this group. I hope that you will come on in, make yourself comfortable here and get to know one another.
All that I ask in return is that everyone treat each other with respect and kindness. We suffer in too many other ways to have to endure any other persecution.
Sincerely,
Jennipher
