Jan - Hunny, I'm so blown up you can tattoo *Goodyear* on my side and fly me over a ball game.
 Since you're off your meds - and I know your a naturalist at heart - you might think about this. (just a suggestion). Cinnamon and or chamomille are good muscle relaxants, and cinny also acts as an anti inflamatory. The only counter indicator on the chamomille is a caution if you have pollen allergies. you can look those up pretty easily or ask your nutritionalist for more info. McGimpy - I wrote that down. We're holding you to it, too. I LOVE Guiness.  Debbie - I only had a neck massage at PT. I know what you mean, I didn't want anybody touching me either, lol. You always see the commercials where they are laying there butt nekked and I'm thinking - I'd be too uncomfortable being in my birthday suit to enjoy the massage.  Maybe I'm a prude? I dunno. Now if Johnny Depp was the massuese... that's another story.  Let us know what the eye guy says, okay? GJ - *Dangling a jelly filled donut* You mean like that? You mean it's not US ya came to see?  You only love us for our pastries.... Tante - I wonder if that show Medical Mysteries will contact you someday. I've been saying this for 5 yrs... tx's are great, and cures are even better. But none of that will do us any good until they can dx us. What we need is a A+ clinic that keeps us till they figure us out. We need a cure for limbo. Sox - I hope that upping the neurontin helps. But I do agree with Debbie. If you have to swith to lyrica, you should taper off the neurontin. Whatever the dose you're on, slowly lower it. You should feel okay med wise at each level before you go down in dose again. I don't know about these two meds so ask your doc, but you may be able to start taking lyrica before you are completely off the neurontin - maybe not. But ask. I took lyrica and neurontin - not at the same time. They are completely different drugs. I did not get any sx relief from N, but did from L. I had total cog fog with N, not with L. Just felt intoxicated with L. I took it for a few months before it stopped working. Tried going up a dose, but had some swelling in my ankles. Tried it again recently but still felt kind of stoned and no pain relief. I'd rather have the pain and feel clear enough to drive, you know?
