Wiz -- I tried cymbalta a few years ago and could not handle the nausea. One good point to going off the neurontin is that I have lost 12 pounds in three weeks. Going to see pcp tomorrow about sinus issues...

Wondering what the PCP said about the neurontin issues and your sinuses?

Gave me a prescription for antibiotics. Gave me the impression that I tapered down more quickly than she would have recommended but would not directly say so. Nuasea could be due to sinus issues.

barb,
So maybe your problem was not withdrawal from Neurontin too fast, but definitely a sinus infection, they linger if untreated.

I think ABX (anti-B's) will do the trick for you. I hope you feel better very soon.

Congratulations on getting off the Neurontin when it wasn't helping you any longer.
