I'm on Gabapentin 600 3x a day. I was already taking Cymbalta for depression, but that should be helping as well. Due to my sensitivity to anti-depressants we are leery of changing that. Lyrica and I did not get along well at all (ugh that was awful). I take Topamax for my migraines, but I've heard that could help too.

Usually I can get to sleep around 12 or 1. Worst case is 3. Then after the kids get off to school I can take a nap. But last night was just awful. Maybe I should have taken my anxiety med, that might have knocked me out, but I wasn't thinking straight at that point.

I've emailed my doctor because my next appointment isn't until April 4. Course with this fantastic worker's comp clinic he's only there like twice a month. So I'm hoping via email I can get some advice? Help? somehting. He only gave me the email after the nerve block. But that wore off. All gone.

He used to work at Stanford so he knows the many other options. The problem is getting them approved.
