[QUOTE="gennie 24, post: 625737, member: 24644"] [B][I]I was diagnosed neuropathy by my go and given 25mg of amyltriptylin at night. This was increased over time to 50 mg then to 75mg.then as pain increased I was given Cymbalta in conjunction. It all helped but I was still in pain and referred to a pain management specialist and started on Gabaphentin. After a few months I had nightmares and hallucinations then double vision which was very scary, I visited my go and stopped gabaphentin. A year later and I was in painful agony again and a new gp started me on Lyrica which is of the same family as Gabaphentin and the pains have subsided a bit. I have my fingers crossed that I don't have any bad side effects with the Lyrica. Good luck everyone. [/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
