Dave,

Make sure the neurologist is one who specializes in Neuropathy. I live in
Memphis and work at the UT Health Science Center where we have someone who
is researching Neuropathy and runs his clinic on Tuesdays. I go to see him
next week.

Meanwhile, my internal medicine doctor has upped my dosage of neurontin from
300 mg to 600 mg. I'm planning on finishing the refills of the 300 mgs
before filling the 600 mg prescription.

Welcome to the group, and have a great day!
Robert, 49 years of age, and still kicking!
