I have SLE, RA, and right now I am severely depressed. I'm broke and waiting on hearing for disability. Anyone taking Cymbalta? Did/does it help? I am currently on Meloxicam, Valium and Tramadol. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

I am taking Cymbalta and it helped me a lot with both pain and depression. Good luck and don't be afraid to try! It can really improve the quality of your life!

I take meloxicam and Cymbalta. Cymbalta has been a huge help for me. It works as both an antidepressant and pain reliever. It helps keep my flare ups down.

I'm on Plaquenil (Hydroxychloroquine) 400mg.. and Hydrocodone 10/325. I also am taking Celecoxib 200 mg. I have never taken those medications and I have been diagnosed since March, 1999.
