Wow, I haven't had any pelvic pain for 4 days straight now since I decided to go back on Cymbalta, 30 mg daily. I take it during a meal to help with absorption and then take a Klonopin at night as needed to relax the pelvic muscles and bladder and I don't wake up anymore with severe bladder and pelvic pain. I was being stubborn thinking I could go without these meds but now I realize I have to take them to have a decent quality of life. I haven't had to take a Vicodin since being on the Cymbalta for a week now. I sure hope this continues. I'm alittle tired from the Cymbalta but that's ok, plus last time I was on it I lost some weight. So for what it's worth, for me antidepressants do help with the nerve pain of IC and maybe it will help someone else reading this.
