I take 0.5 mg. 4 times a day, and while it is normally prescribed for anxiety and is in the same chemical family as Valium, it has given me no psychotropic effect of which I am aware. But it has really helped with the electrical pain.
Good luck.

Thank you. I will mention that I am dealing with this pain to my Dr., when I see her next and I'll see what she thinks about it.
I am cautious with the medications, but I am not ruling out taking another... I am willing to try different things in order to "get better" or more comfortable. I am listening to my Dr. on the medications, and I don't suggest to her what to prescribe me, KWIM?
