Re: [QUAD-L] neurontin
Taking the generic (thanks Medicaid) for severe pain that is pure Hell. Tried it before at 900mg, no relief. New Pain Doc wants me to try 1800mg. Medicaid won't cover Lyrica, tried it once at 75mg 3x per day (samples from Doc), no relief. Even Morphine does nothing. Today at 300 mg neurontin 2x per day. Been building up for 3 weeks. All it does is make me sleep. To the point where I wish I wouldn't wake up. On 5/16/08, KK [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Why are you taking it? Are you on the generic or name brand? There is a big difference in reaction time in the two. I started taking it for nerve pain. When I started having seizures, doc just upped my dose. Seems everytime I try to get off it, the pain sets in again. Currently taking it for both pain seizures. The dry mouth is the pits. Be sure brush your teeth often. It can cause your teeth to rot out.

Re: [QUAD-L] neurontin
Is the teeth rotting just for Neurontin or for all pregabalins? Naomi C4-incomplete, quadriplegic since July 2005 due to Transverse Myelitis **Wondering what's for Dinner Tonight? Get new twists on family favorites at AOL Food. (http://food.aol.com/dinner-tonight?NCID=aolfod000301)
Re: [QUAD-L] neurontin
It is the dry mouth caused by the drug. It is so bad my teeth stick to my lips. GROSS! KK Wondering what's for Dinner Tonight? Get new twists on family favorites at AOL Food.
Re: [QUAD-L] FW: Big Virus
Hi Stacy (and fellow Qs): It's extra important to know this one often does look like it came from a friend or family member. It uses their Address Book and sends it to you From them using their real email address. The best bet -IF- you get an e-Card from anybody, is to send them a quick note, using your own Address Book; not a Reply within the Card, and ask if it actually IS a real card sent from them!! If so, you're typically safe. Extra Note: Several hoaxes have been passed on lately saying, I checked on Snopes. Here's the link, with th expectation you'll believe it was checked rather than taking the time to check for yourself. So, I *DID* check this Postcard one and it is NOT a hoax -- it's a real Virus / Worm! And finally, it should be noted that almost half of this message was email addesses (I snipped 'em out). In the case of a real virus, worm, trojan, etc. this is perfect fodder for harvesting even more addresses to attack. I try to always remove all the Fwd addresses because of this PLUS it just keeps my friend's/family's emails private -- just as they'd like them.

Re: [QUAD-L] spam? or not spam?
Yes... It's just this person's email filter that only allows messages from approved addresses to pass. It looks like it reads the sender's address rather than Quad-List address and then sends a message back to the original. Problem with these IMO is your address gets stored on a 3rd party site/server as a valid address. It can be used by hackers to harvest addresses vey efficiently. I don't use them or add myself as approved sender. Regards, --Tod Stacy Harim [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Anyone else get this email? I got it as soon as I replied to a neurontin question.

Fwd: [QUAD-L] neurontin
**Wondering what's for Dinner Tonight? Get new twists on family favorites at AOL Food. (http://food.aol.com/dinner-tonight?NCID=aolfod000301) ---BeginMessage--- Hi everyone. I was on a huge doses of neurontin for 7 years and for a year on lyrica. I think The Nerontin helped my pain more but it did destroy my teeth and gums. I had pain in my teeth that showed no problem by x-ray. Shortly after I was having abscesses in 4 different areas and teeth. After rounds of penicillin They tried to remove them and it was hell ! I had neuropathy through out my body and my mouth was the same---it would not be sedated. The short of it, I went to surgery, went to sleep and all were removed. They let me stay on a morphine pump for 3 days for pain. I do not have the same relief as a majority of people do to medications. I do not get to sleep, float or talk creatively. I think I was cheated,, I would have loved to be loopy. Kathy **Wondering what's for Dinner Tonight? Get new twists on family favorites at AOL Food.

Re: [QUAD-L] spam? or not spam?
yea, i got it now. Dana cleared it up. Personally I don't trust it either. I get enough junk mail. I don't need more from other sites. I just don't open mail unless I know where it came from. A majority of it is quad list on this address because I have gotten so much junk on msn, I couldn't manage it anymore. Stacy - Original Message From: Tod E.
