i have to take the neurontin and baclofen because i am in complete agony if i don't take it, it's just tearing up my stomach but i have to take it. do you think it could be related to occipital neuralgia?
Hi
hope you are getting better,there is nothing worse than recurring pain and no answers.I know a little about that for quite some time I have a recurring sharp like almost like an electrical shock pain that hits me in the left ankle -like the nerve is damaged .I have x-rays mri nerve tests and needle tests in my muscles-no ans.
I too used neuronton,and it did nothing for me except make me off balance, and took me a while to get back to myself- as far as thinking clearly, although the shooting pain makes me feel very anxious, I at least now feel like this is not gonna beat me I will get to the bottom of it.
Someone said that this forum was useless,but I feel that maybe if the dr`s & others feel "Its all in your head " there is someone else thats knows different,I say they need to walk in your shoes.
Hope you find ansers too!

I think you should check condition named Chiari Malformation.

I was rear ended 7 months ago, since that day I have not been pain free. They tell me I have occipital neuralgia. I have done the injections, meds (that made me very unsettled) and pain meds every day and nothing helps. I have not been able to return to work, adding to the stress. I understand the frustration of others with chronic pain. Nothing is worse than them telling you we do not know what else to do for you.
