Hi Michelle,
Glad to hear you are getting some relief from the Medications. I had to have a giggle about the memory loss thing! When I was on either of these meds (max doses) it used to take me all day to make a cup of tea. I'd put the tbag in and then put the sugar in and by the time I got the milk out the fridge i couldn't remember if i put sugar in so i'd tip it out and start again!! Don't ask me how many times I lost my car in shopping centres or forgot I was a mum of 4kids, not 3 or 2!!!!! Funny now but it wasn't then.Some people have problems when they ean off these meds but I had no problem just returned to being me! Unfortunately i didn't get any pain relief from any of these and am now having a Neurostimulator implanted next Friday October 20th to help with pain. Keep your chin up! It is a long and very personal road when you have pain but I am thinking of you here in Australia! Take Care Lorna
