Hi Stacy,
I'd wake-up and want to eat. I put on weight and almost stopped working out completely, and that was when I started weaning myself off it. At least the pain lets me stay awake and doesn't put weight on me!

Hey Dave,It had the same effect on me plus I put on weight. My doctor was a bit upset I quit taking it but did absolutely nothing for the pain. I take a low dose of methadone and I love it. It's only 15mg a day. The spasticity decreased and everything.Stacy----- Original Message -----From: David K.

I'm usually up at 5:45 A.M. so it was unusual and I stopped using it.With Love,My Doc told me I need to try neurotin or elavil--- I tried elavil 3 days and slept good 1st night then had some indigestion next 2 nights not sure if the elavil caused it and had a lot of the pain i'm trying to get rid of 3rd night......Does anyone know if these meds take a while to begin working ?
