So I had my doctors appt, She basically said all that means is the nueroligist does not no what's wrong with me. All she said is he thinks my brain is irritated? She said it's like some people that can feel their heart beat and usually people don't feel that all the time, she said I can feel my nerves more or something. She is taking me off Effexor because it is not helping. Something is making my ankles and feet swell. She told me the neurologist doesn't think it's in my perpherial or cns. But in my brain? If that makes since? |

Sorry you have no definitive answers, Alberta. I find that can be the case with non-commital Neuros.
I am afraid I have no answer to what he means by 'irritated brain', although I do have a good link for Central Sensitization. I am stuck on my phone, let me see if I can find it. Dave. Here's the Link http://www.instituteforchronicpain.o...-sensitization

Hi Alberta,
These articles (links previously provided) discuss allodynia and "wind-up." This 8 minute video also explains these: http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread224328.html Hope this video helps. ![]() DejaVu |
