I was on it for a little over a year. I'm not sure if I had headaches but it did give me restless leg in a bad way. I had to go off of it because my insurance only paid for 6 months.

I'm currently on lexapro. It helps and i was on it in the past. Cymbalta was amazing but it made my fingers numb and I ground my teeth.

I know I'm really late in the conversation, but I just switched from Cymbalta to Lyrica. My problem with cymbalta was I couldn't pair anti depressants with it because of the drug category. I still have pain but it is better and now am also on prozac which also is doing a good job.

I was on gabapentin for the longest time but my body kept getting immune so we had to up the dosage. I'm now on Lyrica but still experience a lot of pain. However, I've tried going off a couple of times and my lot of pain but still living manageably became can't stand the pain, completely dysfunctional. I also use Tramadol daily and that I find helps a lot and keeps me working full time.
