Normally it is as, best I can describe it, set of usually wholistic form of treatment with the intent of not using narcotics to treat pain. Except for physiatrist prescribing various dosage of Cymbalta and OTC substitute for Gabapentin, I have had very little success with what may be called mind therapy and physical therapy aspects of pain management. However, some people have had some success by participating in the entire process.

I can not use any Gabapentin or ssri drugs, they affect my brain very strange. Until anyone has had this, they would never understand the pain. I have never needed pain pills in my life. They do not give me any sensation of being high. I would never abuse them. They work for what they are intended to be. As soon as we get this figured out...I want off of them asap. Will most likely have to taper them. I again don't know, as this is my first time ever taking them, for a chronic pain condition.
