Very interesting link thanks Summerfan - doesn't swing it for me though. Gabapentin made me very angry and unhinged. I only lasted on it for a few weeks - I was totally bombed with visual disturbances and fatigue and my husband said my personality changed. I don't know if our neuros are right about immunosuppressants and these big guns. Certainly steroids and the four disease modifiers I tried (and had allergic reactions to after a while) were easy to stop and I was very well monitored on them. They seemed to help a lot with neuropathy and I believe this is because they tackled the systemic inflammation which I think causes my neuro symptoms.

I wrote to the neuro today. See my response to Bluesfan if interested. Mat
