hello everyone. I do not have epilepsy.
I’m hoping this community can give me some insight into Carbamazepine.
I have a brain tumour that is pressing on the Trigeminal Nerve causing Trigeminal Neuralgia. This is pain from the Ophthalmic branch.
I was started on the Carbamazepine in mid December with 500mg/day sufficient to control the vast majority of neuralgia attacks.
In mid February, knowing that my ability to work was being curtailed, I shifted to client meetings only between 10:30 and 14:30.
Today, I started at 11 and couldn’t go beyond 13:30.
I’ve just started (today, pm) Prochlorperazine for nausea.
I have a few other medical issues but putting those aside, can anyone let me know, from their experience, how this might play out?
I’m hoping you can gives me a heads up on whether the mental exhaustion eases over time or not.
I’m resigned to having to sell my business, as it has become impossible to mentally keep up with all my legal duties, without severe exhaustion.
Many thanks
