Thanks for your response. I know that the meds go out of your system pretty quick with Neurotin. My Neurologist wanted me on this first because he is pretty careful and said this one has more history to it. I don't know. We are all at the hands of our physician.
The steriod shots have gotten out of my head now. Just a few days of relief from the scalp pain but not worth it in respect to the fact that my skin on my face is burning like mad, and the injection sites are still painful.
