Default Around a bit.

terriellis
I've been around a bit with trigeminal neuralgia. I have not heard of anyone taking both tegretol and neurontin. I'm thinking that you are causing the drunk feeling by using both. By using both how can you tell which one may
be causing side effects?
With Neurontin you are able to go quite high in dosage. I am allergic to Tegretol so I am on neurontin. I take 1200 mg. Three times a day. I've
been dealing with T.N. for the last 12yrs. and all its ups and downs and you can see how every ones story is different. Get more than one opinion
One thing that I have realized along the way is that in many cases, the Doc. doesn't know much more than you do about treating T.N.
Sometime the road will get rocky and I'm sorry about that.
Bless, Doodle bug7
