Posted on Sat, 22 Mar 2014
Question: I have a sandpaper like noise in my head (rub, rub, rub, then stops, then rub, rub, rub) when I move it around. It has been happening from time to time, but now its seems more frequent. I take a 60mg of Cymbalta a day, and I have neck problems. I am VERY concerned and don't now who to seek for attention.
