I am on 125 mg of amitriptyline, 375 mg of lyrica plus random 50mg of tramadol. It is helping with the pain for the most part but I can not function most days. The main problem being tired all the time, I have been awake for about 12hr for last 4 days. What I am looking into now is trying prednisone, I was on it a few months ago for back surgery and had no neuropathy pain at all. Can anyone tell if they have used it and what results they had, along with what levels they took.
