I have been taking Cymbalta since March of 2008 and ever since I have considered myself to be in "remission." Well not any more. My pain is coming back and my bladder has been in hyper-spasm mode. I am very uncomfortable all the time and so I guess im staring to realize that I am not as lucky as I thought I was. I thought it(IC) was GONE!!! NOPE! I do not want to have to start over with all the doctors and all the B.S. they put me through, I went through hell and back, not fun. So my question basically is, do any of you take an antidepressant for pain other than Cymbalta or Elavil-it didn't work, caused worse problems, that treats your pain AND depression, because I need help with both. I am not looking forward to having to ask for pain meds but its looking that way. I would much rather take some type of antidepressant than anything else. What WORKS for you? Please help!!
