Hi! I'm about to turn 25 but suspect I have had this since 19 when I had a riding accident that screwed up my back. I just thought I was weird for having pain when my arms and legs were touched, even by clothing.
Now that I work for my GP I have asked her about it and she said classic fibro (but I'm seeing a rheum in August too).
Started on Gabapentin and it did nothing. Switched to Lyrica which also did nothing.
Now I'm starting week 3 of Cymbalta. I hate the side effects but it was working through about week 1.5 on 30mg a day. So now I'm experimenting with 30mg in the morning and 30mg at night.
I was led to this forum through a Cymbalta Google search so I'm particularly interested in what people think of it!
