Default Update

So I had my appointment this afternoon with a new neurologist. He was very nice, spent over an hour with me. He said that he has had one other patient who developed neuropathy from Flagyl. He said that it took her about 18 months to start feeling better. I almost fainted when I heard that, it seems like forever from now. It has only been a month and I'm going crazy! He said all my blood work and the EMG came back normal. He prescribed a stronger dose of gabapentin for the evening (600 mg) and then Lyrica 1 pill 3 times per day. Also gave me a prescription for Lydicine cream but said it might not help at all. Lastly, he told me to continue to take the oxycondon at night to sleep. I am not too crazy about this but I guess I have no option. I can't sleep without it.

Has anyone tried Lyrica before? Any thoughts?

Thanks
Dan
