Default Adjuncts..

in the form of antispasmotic and antiseizure drugs, such as Methocarbamol, Neurontin, Klonopin and Flexeril may be of some use. You hav eto try each one out to see if you get any benefits , and try not to use too much, too often, as they can be habituating. But since many of us are "addicted" to dopa, I say if it helps, use it. THe word "addicted" doesn't bear the same derogatory, denigrating meaning for the chronically ill as it does for people who should be sober, useful members of society. I believe that ANY drug shoud be available to the chronically ill, if it helps alleviate suffering. I put quality of life over quantity of life any day.
