Title: Yeah!!!! My new dose of effexor and neurotin is helping my nerve pain!!
Post by: SLEEPY101 on October 24, 2010, 06:29:44 PM
Thought I would start a thread on some happy news:) My new high dose of nuerotin and effexor has really helped my nueropathy pain. No more tingleing pins and needles or burning pain. I havn't felt this good for 3 years!! I do have achy pain all over that is new for me. But I will take aches over burning pain any day. Hopefully it lasts:)

Sleepy, I take Lyrica and the newer higher dose of Effexor and I believe it helps my pins and needles.  I have taken the Effexor for some time and the Lyrica about a year and that's when I noticed a change for the better.  Lucy

Glad to hear that you are having less of the neuropathy pain. Hope it contiues. Seems like every so often the medical world discovers that some different combination of meds works better than what was originally used. Irish ;D

What fabulous news, Sleepy!

Maybe that new doc of yours knew what he/she was talking about after all! Wonders never cease!

Wishing you continued wellness, increased energy and pain free forevermore,

Suzie

Well I actually see the new Dr on Nov 3rd. It was my old Endrocrinologist that came through for me. I hope the new Dr agrees and doesn't rock the boat:)
