I have some Amitriptyline left over from my insomnia problem, but I'm probably not going to try it unless it gets so bad that I cant stand it any more. I'm calling my neuro again tomorrow, and if he's not there, I'm asking for one of the others in that office.

I'm not sure which is worse, neuropathic burning, or vertigo. (had a little of that over the weekend) If I get any more vertigo, I'm seriously going to consider steroids, if I do that, hopefully it'll help the spontaneous combustion.
