Thanks, appreciate the input. A chiropractor is something that I have not yet tried but have always been considering, probably will wait until next calendar year when I can switch to PPO insurance.

I can look back into topamax and will check out that book. Admittedly I only tried that medicine for a few days and stopped more because I wanted to try a 'holistic' route, more than because of negative side effects.

But yea - the nortripyline was the first med I tried and it was absolutely miserable. Before it I was going to work, exercising - but as soon as I started it I ended up having to take months off, it felt like that's when the PCS actually started.

My bad experience with meds is why I am intrigued by ketamine. Who knows, it may be BS, but apparently some people do get depression/pain results right away and not have to wait 8 weeks.

My vitamin regimen has included fish oil, magnesium, b2, and D, but I'll throw grape seed extract into the mix.
