> I took Nuerontin for about nine months and struggled with headache the whole time. It was a pronounced strong pressure behind one eye, but the MRI was clear. I was also on Serzone, which I toook before and after. I posted here a few times with similar questions, but no one else had any experience with headaches and Nuerontin. However, when I stopped the Nuerontin the headaches eventualy went away...??? FYI, there is also some research that questions Nuerontin's effectiveness as a mood stabilizer. I am hoping to try Lexapro soon, so if I get any headaches there, will let you know -

> PVI was on Neurontin for several months along with Celexa a couple of years ago and didn't have any headaches, but I think a lot of people on the Lexapro thread here have experienced headaches starting it up. They go away after a few weeks. Of course, from what PV says, it could also be the Neurontin. I would just give it a little more time, and in the meantime I hope you have found something that helps with the pain.
