Are there any fibromyalgia sufferers out there who are on both cymbalta and lyrica? If so what doses? |
I take both cymbalta and lyrica and am doing well on this regime, but I'm so sleepy all the time. I'm just wondering if anyone is in the same boat and what dosages you take of these two meds. Do the meds make you sleepy at those doses? I take 60mg of Cymbalta at night...and 150mg of Lyrica in the morning and again at night. I have only been the Lyrica for 90 days...and have notice my pain level has gone down. Hi I have fibromyalgia my medications are different from your ,I wasn`t able to tolerate lyrica. I am plagued by sleepiness to the point that I would fall a sleep in the middle of every day things, at any rate the med that helped is called provigil, it has helped a great deal. I don't have it, but I've heard of it. I read about it on Wikipedia. |
