      From ColleenH Wednesday

      Hi Kenna. I was only able to read part of your new journal entry. I am sorry you are not feeling well. I have been struggling over the last few days (dealing with the cast in addition to all of the other problems I face), but I am trying to keep my spirits up. Hope things improve for you soon. Take care and gentle hugs,
      Colleen

      I've been dealing with Post herpetic Neuralgia (PHN) since I was sixteen. I'm twenty now.

      Treatments

      Lyrica Not Working
      150mg x2 I would never take it again. Probably the worst medication Ive ever taken. Side effects include everything it describes. Was on Lyrica for two years.
      Neurontin Not Working
      Didnt help at all. Just made me off balance and dizzy. No subsiding pain whatsoever.
      Tegretol Not Working
      Never helped. Didnt make any impact.
      Lidoderm Somewhat Helpful
      Help wasnt a miracle. Just desperate for relief.
      Hydrocodone Not Working
      Never subsided the pain.
