Well I'm back from the Neuro, he says we have to start all over again since I am allergic to the Zonegran. He has started me on a low dose of Topamax. I would love to hear from other folks who have taken, or are taking this drug. He also said Cortisone shots in my spine might help. I am not keen about this idea. (i'm not one for needles). Not only do I suffer from Fibro, but I have a blood clotting disorder called Factor V Leiden. I have blood drawn at least once a month and I dont know how this might affect my clotting problems. I have had 2 Dvt's and 2 Pe's, and I dont want to end up with anymore. I have heard this is a tempoary fix for the pain. I would like some feed back on this procedure also. Thanks Again; Darlene AKA floridanana.
