After trying many alternatives such as Reiki, Theraputic touch, Universal Healing, Pranic Energy, Gentle Touch, Chants, Affirmations and some others w/o significant improvement.........back to the Doc. The drug Neurotin is used to treat depression. However, it was also found to work for shingles. It is still considered experimental treatment for phn. They don't know why it works, when and if it does. I was prescribed 300mg/day which I took for 30 days and 600mg/day for 30 days with no improvement. I just started 900mg/day and on the 2nd day there was a 70% reduction in pain. The maximum dosage is 2,400mg/day. I can drive rather comfortably now and walk straight up but slowly. Hopefully may even give up my handicap plague soon. Let's see. Waddle -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
