introduction of self
Hi everyone, My name is Toni I am so happy to of found Neuro talk Im a 54 yr female off work due to several disabilities. after waiting 3 yrs to finally get into a pain mngmt clinic they found a pinched nerve at the c 5-6 the feeling like electrical shock or pins and needles and pain in may back were unbearable I really thought I could no longer live with this pain.
started on 3600mg of neurontin with no change but vision was double and my sodium/potassium level dropped so low I had to be hospitalized on I.V. then started lyrica first dose I noticed a difference. Now they tell mel if I get 30%
relief that I am doing great, ya right so meds now on 120mg cymbalta, lyrica 450mg, tegretal blood pressure meds 40mg oxyneo, 15mg of percoset for break through, and 10% diclofanac cream with freezing compound works wonderfully , flexeral, plus I did 6 wks of exercise for my neck and back thank god this pain doctor does seem to not just listen but hears me. Thank you so much for reading this and I look forward to more correspondence.
Whoops forgot I also have fibromyalgia, and epilepsy.
Toni
