"i was prescribed cymbalta for anxiety, it has had a major positive impact.  i was a competitive distance runner for about 25 years and sprained both ankles and wore out my knees.  i was so achy in my joints all weekend and realized i did not take my medicine saturday or sunday because i put my pill case away when the cleaning lady came--ha ha.  it helps anxiety and joint pain.  i am very pleased with the results."
