Default trazadone ??????

Oh dear - I can't remember your name but you have a pineapple beside it. Sorry.
Anyway - my neurologist recommended trazadone years ago. He was one of the top RSD docs in the US (Florida) I tried up to 150 mg and it did nothing for my sleep. I know it is a good and reliable drug and wish it would work. Maybe I could try it again at a higher dosage. Since I am polymorphic and don't repsond to any pain meds probably the sleep meds are similar. However, I do respond to xanex for sleep but must keep upping the dosage.
Any thoughts on the trazadone?
Also, I was just prescribed hydrocortisone for pain. Not sure that will work any better than any others. I've tried them all at the higest doses. Very frustrating to not be able to find any med for pain relief. I may have P450. (a condition where people need very high drug doses as their system does not process them normally) Jane posted a site about that condition. I am sharing the article with my Dr. at my next visit.

Thanks,
Sydney
