I have been paralyzed at the T5-6 level since 4/91. The affected
area (from my cheat to my toes) has been in constant pain. The pain
is a deep, burning pain. I have been taking pamelor (nortriptyline)
for a long time; I had tried other drugs for the pain. The pamelor
helps a bit.
2 weeks ago, my neurologist suggested Neurontin. I went from 300 to
900 mg/day, and it really helped by taking the edge off of the pain.
I will be experimenting to see if I need to maintain the pamelor.
