Dearest Neurotalkers:
I have recently changed from Gabapentin to Depakote. The reasons for the change are rather complicated. I took the Gabapentin for the pain of SFN. The bottom line is that with the current dose of Depakote (1500mg/day) almost all of my SFN is gone (burning, stinging, stabbing, itching: scalp, lips, face, tongue, neck, arms, hands, fingers, palms, even my ears and eyes). And it is hoped that the Myoclonic seizures I was experiencing may stop with the Depakote. Between the neuropathies, the seizures, and the severe sciatica which required back surgery (and my back is fine, the sciatica is GONE), I have had a really difficult year. Now I'm back on my feet, and perhaps more stable than ever. Here's to 2017! Hugs, ElaineD |
