I have not tried Valium. I have an appointment wit a Movement Specialist on Wednesday. I am already taking Gaberpentin for my autonomic small fiber neuropathy (1800mg) and I already take Klonopin. I am nervous because I take the medication they prescribe for this and still have the tremors pretty bad.

I know, it can be frustrating and frightening. Try doing the best you can to manage your pain. My daughter who is in her mid-forties and has slight tremors too,says it’s a first world problem. For me it’s mostly frustrating. But it’s not life threatening and unlike some other people, it didn’t make me quit my job.

I was prescribed Valium in my 30s and became addicted. Be careful! And best of luck dealing. Keep us up to date. I've just joined this group (also in Neuropathy) so want to suck up all the info I can.
