hi I have had shingles going on 10 years I take most of the usual med.s. I take lyrica acetaminophen,amitriptyline hcl,ans gabaprntin 800 mg. I have gone to the pain center here in Portland and they didn.t have any idea.s for me
. There have been other things I have tried lidocane patches ,cream and a drip for an hour. None really helped at all. i have even tried I can't remember there names the little needles . I am not depressed as my doctor thought might be the case but I am discouraged. I have had other med's cymbolta and others. The shingles started with a rashm about 2 inches from my left brest around under my armpitand around to my shoulder blade. I don't have to tell you the pain I get if I miss taking my pills on time. I would appreciate and help you can give me. Jim Gribbin
