Between us I stopped taking my neurontin I'm hopes I would loose weight and I've been doing really well with my foot.
With all this being said, last night I took my 1st dose of bentyl and also took 1200 neurontin, which helped. Haven't took any neurontin today and now pain coming back.
Do u guys think this is rsd?

Hi Alt! It is so nice to see you, but sorry for the reason! I really do not have much to offer. It is so hard to say if it is RSD or IBS. I know the doctors default to IBS when they cannot figure it out....been there! I would say if the nneurontin is helping your pain, then keep taking it. That is unless the side effects are too bad to deal with. I cannot take it or anything else like it to help my pain and I really wish I could as I need some relief.
I cannot take Vit C either. I was recently diagnosed with interstitial cystitis (IC) and supplements irritate my bladder, specifically vit C. From what I have read, IBS is common with IC. My PM dr thought it was RSD in my bladder, but it isn't. I also read that IC is common with RSD patients...all I know is that it is painful and another incurable condition in which I can't take the meds for it either
Sorry to go on about myself
I hope you can get some answers and relief soon!
Nanc
