Thanks. I was curious, as my neurologist first wanted to put me on an SSRI. Citralopam I think it was, but I pretty much slept thru the 4th of July weekend. I couldn't tolerate it. Then they switched me to Neurontin.

Now I have another Dr. telling me I shouldn't be so quick to jump on Neurontin right away, I should try another SSRI first. I thought she just wanted to treat me for anxiety.

Makes more sense now if SSRI's are also pain blockers. Needless to say, I'm having a hard time finding a Dr. who wishes to actually communicate....

Sigh...who to listen too? Rock-paper-scissors?
