Thank you so much for your reply.It seems there are many of us "pain suferres!" And yes it SUCKS!
Iam not sure that I am ready for that Dx.( FMS) It was bad enough to have been Dx'd with the MS, but if it can somehow help with the pain I am all for it.Bring it on!
The Cymbalta has really helped with the nerve neuropothy I was having in my legs along with the shot I take everyday for the MS. I am sorry it did not help you at all. But I have been there to.
You would not believe how many meds I am allergic to, not just stomach upsett, but ichy hives and closed breathing passage etc...! Makes life interesting sometimes.....NOT!! But we learn and go on dont we?
Again thank you for your reply and I wish you well and cetainly a pain free existence !

I'm sorry you're in pain,
Let me mention my pain "IT SUCK'S"!!!!!
I hope the Dr. will be able to help you very soon.
Pain is not fun and because you know it, you wouldn't wish this on anyone.
I was dx. with FMS a few years back, and was glad to get a name to the pain.
Cymbalta did nothing but made me itch outrageously. It was as if fire ants placed in my spinal cord and told "see how much more damage you can do". I'm glad that it's working out for you.
FMS has me hurting, stiff, sore, cunfused, crazy, twitching, itching, moving and burning minute by minute. Sometimes I have to yell out for some sanity.
Eventually everything will work out for you, don't give up.
And stay on the Dr. about getting something for the pain and possible a sleep-aid.
