Spinal pain

by Mojobeast46, Jul 12, 2008 02:08PM

Tags: spinal pain

I've had M.S. for thirteen years. This summer I've started having a sharp electrical, burning-tingling pain up and down my spine. It's unceasing and very uncomfortable/distracting. I tried tegretol, but found that it made me very dizzy and nauseated. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, could they let me know if they've found a helpful solution please? Thank you.

This discussion is related to pain medication for MS patient.

I have burining/ tinling sensation in many places, including up and down my spine. It is very painful. I have been taking neurontin and it seems to help. It helps with neurological pain. I have really liked it as there are few side affects that I have noticed. I am not diagnosed with MS, but I have alot of the symptoms. Neurontin and Lyrica are both commonly used to treat the neurological pain associated with MS. I have tried both and prefer neurontin. If you have more questions or want more advice I would let you know that Quix in the MS forum would know a lot more about the medications that I.
