Re: Laurie - antidepressant/neuropathy

Laurie - Is Cymbalta the one that you're thinking of? It was recently approved for use with diabetic neuropathy. BarbaraGinny Barrientos wrote:

Ginny,

Thanks for the advice. Yeah I'm watching out for the pnuemonia also. That's what just about didme in June. I was on the ventilator. Feeling a heck of alot better today. Slept a little better last nite. I think it's just a matter of to much medication and the side effects. I don't handle siezure meds well and I need them, go figure. My gen dr. says there is a new antidepressant that helps with neuropathic pain. I think it starts with a C. any one heard of it?

Here's hoping your days are filled with less pain and brightness.
