Pain
"I have peripheral neuropathy that was originally misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia, until I demanded real tests. I&#039;ve tried Duragesic, Oxycontin, Vicodin, Tylenol with Codeine (developed an allergy to), Lyrica, as well as various other NSAIDS and muscle relaxers. I hated taking narcotics, there is a big family history of drug abuse and it really made me worried that maybe I would start acting like them.  I would say that Ultram ER 300mg plus 2 of the 50mg tabs per day as needed really works well. I do also take 1500mg of gabapentin a day, alprazolam to sleep if needed, and Soma occasionally (maybe 2-3 x/ month). I also use Lidoderm patches and TEDS.  I now can go to college again and don&#039;t feel doped up."
