I started to go to a physiatrist. I dumped all pain medications, but still have them for the rough times. I use a cream now, that really works. I can list the ingrediants. I tried Geb. lyrica, cymbalta, and a few others that did nothing. I actually think this is better without all the medicaiton. I also started giving myself B12 shots every week. I have 4 other vitamines that seem to be helping as well. Since the medication route didn't work all that great, I am trying a more natural approach. I do wish you all the best. I wonder what others are doing too. ginnie
