Trigger point injections/Topamax

[Guest guest]

Ray.. I hope the injections help. I've heard they do with some people

and don't in others..

I know the frustration you are having with dropping things. I do the

same thing and it does nothing for a person's self esteem. I tend to

hide accidents from my family, I'm not sure why...fear I suppose.

I am having great difficulty with my arms, going to sleep, then burning

and hurting so much...just moving them doesn't help, I have to

completely get up and move my whole body and get some relief after about

10 minutes..I know it's from the cervical nerves...I have the same

stinging pain in my neck.

Did I hear others on this list talk about taking Topamax instead of

Neurontin? I'm to see the doctor tomorrow and I'm thinking he will start

me on Neurontin and I've heard it makes you gain weight and I sure don't

need that.

Ray, here's hoping the increased meds will help....
