The vicadin helps a little but still horrible.I like you asked for something more cause the pain is unreal even through this and they said in outpatient that is all and when I went to the er they were little help. Now I'm going to a pc after the dx.Your not alone and still in my thoughts. Dahlek I'm confused about options and what you meant is it what doc offer to do or try? I feel like since no dx they just keep trying things that make it worse so was wondering.So much waiting too and I feel docs though I say don't understand the true pain. Take care to all
I tried the neurontin but it did not help. The cymbalta INCREASED my pain, and the amitriptiphane (elavil) caused me to stop breathing when I fell asleep...a very BAD drug...for me. But the Lyrica has provided relief...at dosages 5+ x the max "allowed" prescribed dosage. Maybe the ketamine injection could help. If I can find a doc at Johns Hopkins who knows something about nerve damage from electricity, maybe he can try that.
