So sorry to hear about the pain. You are on neurontin, is that for diabetes or cervical problems causing the arm pain.

Pink my DW, had arm pain they treated it for two years before they finally checked her neck. Work comp sucks in Ca.

So please have them order an MRI of your cervical spine.

God speed,

Ouch

I have arm pain too, it hurts, need to get it checked. It's weird, it is not in a joint, but more like the muscle. Can't hardly raise it and it wakes me up during my sleep.

I have arm pain all the time. Sometimes my whole arm, most times as of late from my elbows through my fingertips (among all my other body pain). It feels like a wierd burn sometimes and sometimes it feels like pain. I am on Lortab 5. It
gets me about five to six hours to get some things done. Sorry to hear about your pain. But you're not alone. If I learn something meaningful about all this stuff, you will too. I'll share everything I know. God bless.

I guess I am lucky....but my arm pain comes and goes.....it is not often, but when I have it it is incredible pain......I have a TENS unit and last week i taught school with all the wires dangling from my arm, but it does help calm the nerves down. If you see a PT sometimes you can borrow one or rent one. I sucked it up and bought my own, and it is great, I put it wherever I need it...if you want to know more about the TENS message me and I will fill you in.

ahhh hun (((((hugs)))) I have MS and get that kind of pain as well. I am starting Cymbalta and will keep u posted on how well that works. I also take methadone for pain and it helps some, also baclofen helos with some of the achey deep down pain ....
many hugs

See about another anti-seizure thing like Topamax or Depakote. Cymbalta and Lyrica might be good options, too. Others here know the find differences between them all better than I do.

I can say this about Neurontin. I am on it for headaches, but I also have nerve pain in my arms. It has helped the headaches tremendously, but does nothing whatsoever for my arms. Good luck finding help.

i was upset yesterday-burning pain-went to my dr and she said its beyond her scope- i need to see a specialist- i did that last year and had a terrible time-medical records were somehow mixed up with someone else who has carpel tunnel (which i dont have) and anyway-it was so stressful-workmans comp situation was so bad i just gave up on it all-am considering going out of state to get a fresh dr...i dont what kind of doc to see- my family dr thinks i should see an orthpodic...i think its a nerve problem- and yes, it has been mentioned that it may be coming from my neck- would like to hear more about that from others- i have not been given any pain meds other than neurotin and motrin (maybe due to the med. records mixup stufff???) it all sounds crazy..it feels crazy and i am at a loss-if i go out of state, its a huge committment to get there-i live in alaska
