Looking for
something specific?

Over the last 25y or so I have utterly random bouts of neuropathic pain in my right ear. It feels as if someone is pushing a sharp pencil onto my eardrum and depending on how ‘sporty’ it is it can spread to the area around my ear. It is tender to press around the ear as well. It means I can’t wear...

It sounds so weird and when I try to explain it to some people, they just look at me confused. To touch, my right leg feels numb and walking on it just feels weird but the pain and burning sensation that is going through my whole leg is just horrible.

I feel like I have sunburn everywhere from the neck down alongside balance and weakness issues. I’m taking 600mg pregaba...

Are there drugs you can start taking when a phase of neuropathic pain arrives and stop taking when the phase has passed, or are they all long-term? As I understand it, gabapentin and pregabalin are both long-term ones, taking weeks to be effective in the first place and then having to be taken for m...

Hi everyone, The pregabalin was doing nothing for me except making my bladder worse, so I have been titrating off it for the last two months after almost two years on it. I had my last dose yesterday and I'm really feeling the withdrawal today but I'm just going to have to ride this feeling out as ...

It’s been about a week now, still got this horrible nerve pain in my left side (which I used to have when I was 16/17, but with treatment it went away pretty much) and over ribs as well. I’m drained. Having massive headaches. My walking is weird at the moment too, I think something is wrong with my ...
