Default Lamictal
So, now this may be tried for me: Lamictal

I have not filled it yet.
FTR, I have been on pregablin, gabapentin, cymbalta.
Now with amitriptyline, lido patches, tramadol.

Any suggestions, experience?

I have small fiber neuropathy with no normal sensation. Painful to be touched and wear clothes (wearing cotton and silk to manage).

TIA

It's not a first line drug for SFN. In my opinion, it's because it doesn't have good enough results to even be considered as first line. I tried it... did nothing.

But everyone is different and what works for one, might not work for someone else...and vise versa.

Reminds me of how a lot of auto mechanics work. Just try things and hope something makes it run.

For me, hydrocodone SR helps. It doesn't resolve the pain but it takes the edge off and with PN, I need all the help I can get. I have many days when nothing helps and I have to be in fetal position in bed but otherwise, it helps.
