Judy you're lucky you can take Carbamazepine. I had the weirdest side effect on that medication that I stopped it only on day 2 of taking it, but I also poorly reacted to Neurontin (Gabapentin) and Topiramate (I think it's called?).

There were 3 anti convulsants in any event that I failed on

I'm really glad to hear the balloon compression worked for you. I wonder if anything like that would work in my situation. My MS is what drives this beast, so it's very hard to say.
