Several years ago, my spine surgeon had me try both of these for nerve pain, but I don't like the side effects at all, not to mention that they are quite pricey!

Any input would be appreciated. Thanks............

Don't know too much about it myself but a friend of ours has it and I know she goes through the mill some days. Her doctor told her to do mild GENTLE exercise and recommended she use the hospital pool for this, she seems to find some relief from that. Hard to muster up the strength if you're dead tired though. She also goes for acupuncture and says it helps some. Seems those that have it take different meds, no specific med works for everyone apparently. I hope you can land something that will help you.
