Wonderful Snoopy! Glad that life will be less stressful
without that pain.

I wish my dr. would find something that would help and that my
body would tolerate it.

That's great news, Snoopy. Does this medication have any side effects? I'm taking Neurontin and hate the side effects that go along with it. Plus, it's losing its effectiveness at the dosage I'm on.

Kelly, like any med Trileptal has side affects:
http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/oxcarbazepine_ad.htm

I started to have problems with dizziness and nausea when I increased the dosage. I decreased a little and waited longer then tried again - second time was a charm.

You could always talk to your neuro and see if Trileptal is an option for you. It took me a long time to find something that worked.
