Thanks!

Hello Jdarie,

Welcome to the forum.  It's a great community to be associated with.  There is plenty of good information and no shortage of support and compassionate ears and hearts.  I've been a member since May this year, and have picked up a good deal of information.

I take Cymbalta, 120 mg daily and it has has “worked wonders” for severe testicular pain that has plagued me for several years.  I take it along with Gabapentin (Neurontin) 2700 mg daily and Oxycodone up to 60 mg daily.  

At one point, I had been taking 140 mg of Oxycontin daily (which is a really a very high dose, but it did not even come close to alleviating the pain as did Cymbalta.

Wishing you the best, and hope to "see you around."

Frank

I am currently on 300mg 3 times a day because taking 600 mg 3 x a day made me so so solo sleepy, almost like an out-of-body experience

It helped relieve cold feet but did little for pain.
