Hi Joan ,

I do take very low-dose Neurontin (antiepileptic), about 600 mgs per day, for RSD, and cafergot for migraine; what I meant by no narcotics was no pain-killers, nothing that brings on too much brain fog or loopiness.

The neurontin pushes the pain into the background enough - it never disappears at all, but makes it tolerable. As I said, I'm fortunate at the moment to have RSD mildly - frankly, the RSI is turning into my Big Problem at the moment. But if the RSD returns to the levels of 18 months ago I'd probably change tactics, and may have to soon if the RSI continues at the present rate. However, since I have to work (no choice), I just can't function on too many drugs, so...that's it, really, I need to function.

I'd quite like to take more Neurontin, but it makes me doolally!

OK, cleared that up,
all the best
