Is the only treatment nerve block for RSD? Also pain meds, I guess. I am taking:
• Cymbalta 60mg (to heal nerves) • Hydrocodon Acetaminoph 7.5-500 (1/2 tablet every 6 hours for pain) • Methocarbamol 750 MG (1/2 tablet every 6 hours muscle relaxer) •LYRICA 75 mg, (6 Capsules for Nerve pain) One of the listed side effects of Cymbalta is elevated blood pressure. I went from 30mg 10 days ago and 7 days ago my blood pressure went from my normal of 124/75 to as high as 154/80. Along with that is a slight head ache, I never have head aches. I am seeing the neurologist tomorrow afternoon. I want to disscuss getting off Cymbalta or at least go back to 30mg. Two questions: • Does Cymbalta or Lyrica help the treatment of RSD? • Is nerve block the only treatment? |
