Gebapentin didn't agree with me - terrible side effects. Now on Cymbalta - combined with a variety of other meds including Amitriptyline and Tramadol.

Pregabalin is a really useful drug used by a number of people at my pain clinic - with what appears to be very few complaints. Instead of switching, it may be useful to look into different combinations instead - which I'm sure you're already doing.

Finally, I'm sure you don't need me to tell you that you will need to do thorough research on Dr. Oraede who Duncan claims can cure Everything if you decide to check him out. I have requested a weblink from Duncan and have asked him to please refrain from promoting his doctor on this site in this manner even though I'm pleased that he has been cured and is now pain-free. I hope you understand my anxieties and concerns about this.

Hi, I tried Gabapentin and Pregabalin for neuropathic pain, not MS though. Horrible stuff, neither agreed with me, bad side effects and no impact on pain levels.
