Close Chronic Pain
I have chronic pain from myeloneuropathy. It involves spinal cord and peripheral nerve damage. I have severe nerve pain in my legs, pelvis region and lower back. I do not have control of my right leg and have to use a walker. I have constant bladder spasms and recently began self catherization. I have severe migrains and feel lethargic always.
Treatments
- Hydrocodone Working / Worked
- Takes the edge off
- Lyrica Working / Worked
- Helps with the pins and needles but makes me lethargic. Now take Neurontin which also helps with the pins and needles and does not make me tired.
- Pamelor Working / Worked
- Take it at night and it helps with the nerve pain. also used in conjunction with the Neurontin to prevent migrains.
- Clonazepam Working / Worked
- Take at night to also help with sleep.
- Flexeril Working / Worked
- Helps with the muscle spasms. Usually only take at night.
- Lexapro Working / Worked
- Helps with the depression that results from the pain
- Provigil Working / Worked
- Helps with the mental fog and gives me energy to get out of bed
