Guest guest Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Sure it sounds fine. Not everyone needs to go to 120 mg. each day. In fact, some doc claim that dosages over 60 mg. don't help much, but there again, YMMV. I'm proof that for me the higher dose does work. I don't absorb meds the same way as normal people because of my gastric bypass, so that can cause higher doses. Plus, I am also on Provigil and I think the 2 drugs are working together to help lift my mood and increase my energy level. I go up to 400 mg. on the Provigil today. I've been using samples for months now, so this will be my first paid prescription. I'll probably have sticker shock as I have to pay 40% of the cost. Anyway, I digress. Good luck with the Cymbalta. Yes, it helps my pain as well as depression, but for me it's the fatigue that I really look at. Take care. Jeanne in WI > Does the Cymbalta help your pain?
