Headpain

I was trying to slowly come of the Topiramate, one of the long term painkillers for my painkillers i was on 200mg originally. I got to 100mg and the headpain came back with vengance; i thought that the topiramate wasnt helping the headpain and i was mistaken i had forgotten how bad the headpain was. Unbearable to the point of screaming yet not wanting to scream for fear of making the headpain worse. So my fiance and i descided to up the dose to 150mg it took about 1 week or so to build up again in my system but in that time i had to suffer the agony of the headaches as well as the other fibromyalgia symptoms.

My Rhemologist said that i was to try and come off of the Topiramate to go onto a new tablet that could help the pain and relax my muscles will have to see what he says when i see him in october.

My Gp has also prescribed me some local anaesthetic cream to rub onto my joints several times a day it seems to be helping.

About a week ago i recieved a letter from the Disability Living Allowance people thanking me for being patient its been a number of months now i dont know whether to take the letter as a good sign or a bad sign...
