In addition to my neurologist I have a pain medicine specialist who has helped me greatly.
Gabapentin was not working for me nor was Pregabalin alone. I am now on Pregabalin ER and amatripyline. Some nights I need more help and I take additional Pregabalin and amatriptyline.

I have used many different topicals, most have done nothing some work at times and not others. I can elaborate if you or anyone wants more specifics. Accupuncture is also helpful.
