Thanks for the suggestion. I will look into Neurontin. My pdoc insisted that I was at the maximum recommended dosage, but my research online indicated that 40 to 60mg is max. I am with Kaiser Health Plan. They tend to be on the conservative side. It is no use printing and showing him my research online because he will state he is following Kaiser's maximum recommended dose. I did it before on another A/D and he got all pushed out of shape for even trying to suggest otherwise.
