I am looking into everything as well to be able to function and stay mobile. The gabapentin seems to work for me, though I may need a higher dosage soon. I'm using 650 acetamenophen as well as a B vitamin cocktail with Lipoic Acid. Sometimes I throw in a little Naproxen sodium. I'd rather not though because of the bleeding risk. I'm also trying to improve my diet. Too little, too late?

I've written down the Calm and I will look for it. Stoned doesn't sound too bad sometimes. Especially if you're trying to get some rest. Up early this morning with my feet on ice.

I'm lucky that mine isn't too bad AZSkiffyGeek Nov 2023 #1
