I am still getting sideffects, bad stomach pain & bloating, some dizziness and now Hair Loss! Did you have hair loss? Did you finally stop your medication? What medication, if any are you taking for your pain now? I have sfn , idiopathic of course
Mariel, I was on Neurontin (gabapentin). I couldn't work as a PA on that- couldn't think quickly- bad drug for me. Dilantin was tried next and was the worst. I was eventually hospitalized for 10 days of a gram a day of Cortrosyn.

That's what rescued me.

Hope you find something more reasonable than that.
