Injection of Medrol or Toradol. Valium or Ativan. See your doctor of course.

I am learning more about benzodiazepines. Klonopin and Valium are long acting while Ativan is short acting but takes effect quicker. I believe this makes Ativan best for flares. I took someone's Ativan when I forgot my Valium at home and it worked great.

There is something new called DM/Q that is supposed to help desensitise the nerves. The DM is same stuff thats in Robitussin DM. The Q is Quinodine. I cant take the Q so I am trying to just get the DM from a compounding pharmacy, but they are having trouble getting it. My nerve flares are rare now too-usually exacerbated by certian pt or massage, so avoiding those now.I am also taking Alph-Lipoic acid (natural) which is supposed to help dull the nerves also.

Yes, Marc is correct. Zenvia. My Neurologist had samples of it. It is supposed to help prevent flares, but I dont think it would help once you get the flare. I am waiting for my compounding pharmacy to make it without the quinidine for me-if I ever get it I will report back. You can also get neurontinin cream at a compounding pharmacy. i use a neurontin and flexeril cream with an anti-inflammatory in it too.
