I'm sorry you have MP. It's hard to live with, and even harder to find people who really know what it is. The easiest way I've found how to describe it (although it's not right) so that people have some clue is saying I have sciatica in the front of my leg. Everyone knows what that is, so they at least have some idea what is going on with me.

I take Gabapentin - 1500 mg per day, along with 30 mg of Cymbalta for the pain. I'm thinking of talking to my Dr about adjusting my dose of Cymbalta. He gave me a script for up to 2400 mg of Gabapentin per day, but I don't think I can deal with the dizziness/spaciness that comes with it. It's hard enough as it is with this 'low' dose.

I have a TENS unit and pain patches as well, and the combination of everything seems to keep things at bay. I really hope this is just a flare, and not a base line.

Good luck!!!!!
