It worked for me for the longest time but now I am having more problems with pain then before and I have been put on a fetynal patch along with neurontin.

Hope this helps you some. Any questions please ask.

Thanks for the replies, I am only on Day 3 of the meds so far only slight dizziness.
My DD said to take the meds after food, but the most pain I get is at bedtime and have difficulty actually getting in and out of bed.
Would it be better to take them just before sleep once they have been introduced properly into my system.
