beaglelover.................       02/15/05 03:04 PM Edit Reply Quote MissS Reged: 02/11/04 Posts: 837 Yes, my husband has been to a neurologist. That's who gave him the Gabapentin to try. That is really great stuff for the pain. Better than anything. But, like I said, the side effects were too much for my husband. He has neurogenic claudication from nerve damage due to diabetes and his spinal problems. Your friend is right. If you're not pleased with your treatment thus far, then by all means, see a neurologist. Evenutally, someone will find the right combination that will work for you. Just don't give up; no matter what. My husband also goes to a pain management clinic. That's who gave him the lortab/amitrip combination. Oh my gosh, I know how hard this is for you. I watched my husband suffer for a long time before he finally got some relief. He still lives with pain, but at least he can sleep now. I didn't realize that you might have troubles taking Amitriptyline with your other meds. But, still, DON'T GIVE UP! There's something, somewhere that will help you! Have you tried a chiropractor? I see one for my own back troubles. Also, you haven't tried the cortisone shots yet and lots of people find relief with them. My husband had one round of them, and they didn't help him much. But, it's still something you might want to consider. Just don't quit trying. There is an answer and God will lead you to it. I feel for you so much! Terri Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
