I mentioned last week that I went to a new Neuro in New Jersey and he recommended that I stop Cymbalta (cold turkey) wait a couple of weeks and start on Neurontin. His reason was that I am already on Lyrica and Cymbalta does the same thing so I was just supposedly doubling up. Anyway it has been a week since I stopped the Cymbalta and I have started getting terrible banding in both legs and especially around my trunk area. Doing my own test I took a Cynbalta and within a few minutes I started feeling better again. It now appears obvious to me that somehow or other the combination of Lyrica and Cymbalta was working for me and I plan on going back on it. I would appreciate feedback by members who take both of these drugs and how they have helped them. In addition on top of these 2 drugs should I consider the Neurontin to further reduce the banding?
