neuralgia
"Started taking nortriptyline in 2004 for neuropathic pain, primarily in my legs.  Tried Cymbalta when it came out in 2006 since it stated helpful with neuropathic pain.  It didn't work; the hives, itching, tingling, and burning all returned.  Back on the nortriptyline; my doctor allows me to vary my dosage from 50-80 mg depending on how my neuropathy is doing.  Very noticable difference when I lower it; thinking I could get by with less because feeling better.  80mg seems to work very well for me."
