Pain
"After spinal cord injury and fractured vertebrae (T10) in 05&#039;, I had rods inserted to hold spine together and repair spinal cord. After long stay in hospital and rehab facility in Adelaide, Australia I was prescribed Oxynorm and MS Contin for the pain. But as this did not relieve the nerve pain in my legs (okay for back) I was put on to Neurontin 300mg. I&#039;ve since had to increase my dosage to 1200mg x 3 times per day. I&#039;ve found Neurontin amazing for the nerve pain. I&#039;ve had a few side effects (minor). I&#039;m still taking the opiates still but hopefully will be able to ween off them in the not to distant future and see if just the Neurontin will be able handle all of the pain."
