RE: [Arachnoiditis] alternative to neurotin

Hello Linda,

 

How long have you been taking Neurotin for?

 

I used to take Neurotin a few years ago and I can remember having blurred vision for a good few weeks, but once my system had become used to the drug, the blurred vision cleared and my eyesight was back to normal.

 

Unfortunately all drugs have side effects and sometimes it is a case of “riding it out” for a few weeks, putting up with the sometimes unpleasant and bizarre side effects which will pass after the initial first few weeks or so.

 

Have a talk to your Dr again and ask for their advice, I’m sure if you found the Neurontin helpful it is worth trying again.

 

I hope you can find the answer you are looking for.

 

All the best, kind regards.

 

Ursula
