My legs and feet have been burning today. Will nuerotin help that even if i just it only when i have the burning problems???? I've taken nuerotin before for about 2 weeks, it made me a zombie, so i stopped takin it. Basicaly, what i'm asking is can you take nuerotin for burning like you would say tylenol for a headache?

I don't know for sure, but I think it's probably like Lyrica...something that works over time. I will be watching tho...it would be nice to have something to take as burning appears. I stopped the Lyrica because of the fatigue and just deal with the burning.

neurontin works for the burning i have from but i have to take a very low dose. Much lower than they say helps. But it helps me. The first script I had was for 400mg 3 times a day. It made me a zombie at that dose too. Now I take 100 mg 2-3 times a day. It works in that dose for me and doesn't make me a zombie, like you said.

I took Neurontin 6 years ago for my burning left hand but it didnt help. After Dr. upped the dosage twice and still nothing I stopped taking it. The suicide side effect made it easy to stop trying it. If u research Neurontin you'll see it's like the suicide pill.

I'm so fed up with doctors and meds. Why don't the doctors just tell you what the side effects are going to be up front. They act like meds are going to create miracles but they don't. Sorry, I'm just been real down with the doctors and medicines lately.
