You asked about the Gabitril when I posted wanting for other people's experiences. Well, it's been a little over 2 weeks now, and taking the pill before bed is the way to go. I'm resting way better, and am beginning to have less pain, in my calves where it's been so bad of late. I actually woke up feeling rested yesterday morning! http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/biggrin.gif I just laid around on Sunday, so I'd gotten plenty of rest! http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/yawn.gif I'm a little tired today, but still better than I have been in the past. Thought you'd like to know. Kuntryhart http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/smile.gif

WOW! {{{{{{{{{{{{Kuntry}}}}}}}}}

So good to hear from you. Am so glad that it is working for you. I had my doctors appt yesterday and completely FORGOT to ask her about that med. Don't think it was the fibro fog this time tho. I told her about the severe pain I've been having in my spine, especially the middle part.

Well, she thinks its either a crushed disk, vertabrae or whatever, i tuned out as soon as she said surgery.
My sister was with me so I'm glad she understood everything that was said, lol. Theres this surgery that they install something in between the crushed or collapsed disks and then pump something in it and it opens it back up. There is only one doctor in this area that does that. This is one im going to have to really think about. They took numerous xrays plus tspine xrays and I should get the results soon, I hope.

She did mention tho, and this is weird, that it "happens" alot to people with fibro. I know other people have been experiencing this kind of pain. She didnt explain why it happens tho, i havent had an accident or fallen. I'm only (only haha) 48 yrs old, i am 5'3 and weigh 122 lbs, so Im not overweight so that cant be it. Just odd, have to wait and see what happens. Should see her soon again for the results and hopefully I'll remember this time to ask about that med you're taking.

Have a great day sweetie,
Jen
