Title: Neuro app't today, starting Neurontin
Post by: mshistory on May 27, 2013, 02:40:20 PM
After seeing my neurologist today, he agreed it sounded like I have nerve inflammation due to my lupus so he is putting me on the lowest dose of Neurontin for now. It's cleared by the kidneys and since my last labs showed kidney inflammation, I can't go any higher until we find out what's happening with the nephritis.

Good grief, this all gets so complicated  :P

I hope you get relief on it!  I have a rheumy appointment on Wednesday.  I think it is time for me to try it as I am tingling and numbness and burning feet.  It bothers me mostly at night.  Keep us posted!
