Tegretol Bringing Improvement?

[hipkicker96]

I seem to be having some luck with Tegretol. Into 3rd day with 200mg dose and seem to be noticing some improvement. Also tried neurontin with no perceived benefits. Xanax provided me with no benefit to twitching.

I'm moving through medications listed on the PNH website and the ones my neuro prescibed. Tegretol is one that overlapped from both sources. I'll be posting in a week or two to update whether the progress continues.

Good luck. I feel the exact same way. The twitching, pain, etc. can be very distracting.

I have heard of the effectiveness of anti-convulsants.

My wife has epilepsy and takes dilantin every day.

I'll talk to my neurologist and get some opinions from him on whether he thinks that might be a good move for me. I know I REALLY want to get off Xanax (doing that right now) and Zoloft (doing that right now too) So, I'm happy about that. I just hope that the twitching doesn't keep me up at night and cause me to get stressed out.

Some people are fortunate enough to drink Gatorade and take some vitamins and go to bed. Maybe it's that simple?

I think Id' rather have Gatorade, Magneseum, B Complex, than Zoloft and Xanax
