Does Cymbalta work the same as Gabapentin or Lyrica? Are all three used for neuropathy and depression?

I Am Not Sure What’s Going On But I Had Severe Pain In Right Big Toe.

A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Columbia, SS

Off and on I’ve been having pain in my right big toe. The pain is constant now it started about two weeks ago and nothing seems to help to relief the pain. I have a severe case of neuropathy due to the chemo I received during treatment and the super chemo I received during my BMT. I will see my Oncologist on October 31st and will have her check it while I’m there. I am very concerned and pray that it is nothing serious. Please pray for me and God bless you all!
