Thanks everyone for your ideas.

Latest in the saga: doc1 office finally called back and said that they phoned in a script for Topamax. When I said "OK, so which ones am I going to stop taking?" she said "None, keep on taking the others too."

"You mean he wants me to take Amitriptyline, Gabapentin, Tegretol, and Topamax?"

"Yes, keep taking everything that you're already on."

I'm not doing that. I don't know much about this stuff, but that sounds insane to me. I will try the Topamax, but I didn't tell her that I already stopped taking the Tegretol (I did it gradually).

My brain is so buzzed from all these meds that I can't even think about the circulation issues right now, but I'll keep checking in as I (hopefully) get something under control here.

Thanks again.
