Right now, I’m on noritryptiline for pain, anxiety and depression. Since the weather is getting g cooler, I will need to switch cuz I’m having more pain in my fingers and toes. I see my neurologist in November. God bless!
It got so bad i was prescribed high doses of morphine. Now i take fast tech and longtech a type of oxycontine, they give me some relief without the heavy hit of morphine. I can still operate without looking like a drug addict. I have now been diagnosed with a chronic pain disorder on top of my fibromyalgia and other issues. I hope this helps as it seems your pain levels are soaring.
My sister went to a female doctor for years. She described this shaky feeling she got around 3 pm every day. The doctor put her on Xanax. She was on it for years. One day we were talking on the phone and she told me she was getting the shakes and she didn't know why. I asked her to trust me and get some juice and peanut butter crackers and call me back in half an hour. She did and she was all better. Here, her doctor was giving her Xanax for low blood sugars. What a quack! Sorry. This doesn't relate to you but whenever I see Xanax, I think of that story. Hope you have better days ahead!
Rick47 yes that’s right I am suffering severely waiting for the neurologist to come. I’m glad 😀 the increased antidepressants helped you. 😀 glad you are doing better. Margaret2
@Margret2 i wondered why i was taking massive doses of morphine but still felt pain, thats why i asked to come off it, i still felt pain yet was constantly sleeping, i was like a zombie just going through the motions. Its only when my antidepressents were changed and increased i felt any benefit. Thats why i was diagnosed with chronic pain syndrome. Thanks.
