experiences with current set of medications

[Guest guest]

Neurontin: I take 3000 mg of Neurontin per day. It works really well.

It saved my life back in 2000 when I first started using it.

Neurontin works by suppressing electrical impulses in overfiring

nerves. That proves to me that part of my pain is nerve pain.

Effexor: I take 150 mg of Effexor Extended Release per day.

Effexor is a nasty drug. It has some nasty side effects which I will

list in a separate post. However it really does make you numb.

Effexor works by giving you more " noradrenaline " I guess that keeps

you from feeling pain. Step on a nail? Who cares!!
