Hi my name is Jess and I live in charlotte, NC. This summer has been hell.
I started out with a ruptured cyst, which aggravated my GI issues and had an inflamed and spastic colon, but the worst part is a constant burning pain I am having in the vaginal/pelvic area. I have been put on 600mg of Nuerontin by my nuerologist, and I also take Lexapro, only 5 mg.
Can this low dosage help with burning pain? Would I be better off asking to tirate the Nuerontin faster? Initially it was my GI doc that put me on Lexapro to help with IBs and the brain gut connection, so I am wondering if I would be better to go with Elavil for nerve pain. I hate this constant burning, and I can't sit down without pain. I have had to take off work for months as I am a guitar and piano teacher and i have to sit.
I know some patience is needed, but my Nuero wants me to take 600mgs for 4 weeks without titrating, I think I need to be increased a bit faster.
Thoughts?

thank you .
