Healthgal,
Thank for the response. It's so hard. I can't sleep when I do I know I'm awake before I really know that I'm awake because the burning stinging pain comes roaring bsck. It's in my mouth ( tongue, guns, teeth) in my nostrils, etc everywhere. It's horrendous. I haven't been in this pain since before meds and now it's worse.
I haven't been on benzo before. I've never had anxiety before sfn. However I've turned this into central pain syndrome with all my anxiety and inability to do anything other than focus on pain. Ibneed something that will check me out everyday all day. I know I'm only 31 and that's too young for all these meds. But, what choice do I have. My PC doc keeps warning me about meds and to stay in as little as possible because tolerance builds and dosages need to be increased until med doesn't work anymore. I need meds to work for perhaps another 60 years so I can't run through too quickly. But i have no choice. I will be upping my gabaoentin to 1800 from 1200 . I will tell my neuro of this increase. Many people seem to have success with 1800. I need to do something for relief. It's excruciating. It's wrapping Around my lungs and making it difficult to breath because of the burning.
