From what I have read from others on this board it is the rare person who one drug helps them pain relief wise. I am not saying never but the majority. Usually it seems like a combo of meds or treatments and a lot of trial and error. I also wonder how your doc dx the neuropathy. I am not a fan of guessing. I hope you have had mris,emg,etc. I also agree about looking at the rsd forum. I give so much credit to moms who have to face pain plus be a mom. You are all so strong.
