neurontin question
Re: neurontin question
The neurologist I first saw who prescribed the 600 mg of Gabpentin told me that she wouldn't prescribe more than 450 mg a day of Lyrica. I am on 800 mg and am in considerable distress. It's a good thing that I don't have to work. I am not in agony, but constantly have a painful throbbing of my genital area and anus. Even at this high dose of Lyrica. I felt like telling the doctor that if she didn't prescribe higher than 450 mg, she was leaving her patients in pain. I don't think she has ever dealt with PN or PNE.
Botched blowing up of bladder July/2011
Was on Lyrica 800+ Mg./day for over 2 years
Bad fall due to Lyrica dizziness, seizure
Due to low blood sugar, side effect of Lyrica
Now on gabapentin, OxyContin, tramadol
Looking for pain pump, has to be local

Bathsheba, I'm sorry lyrica isn't taking your pain away. Often a combination of drugs works better than one by itself so you may want to ask about adding some additional pain medication. Check out the pain medication page for more info. http://pudendalhope.org/node/20 Maybe you also want to consider a pain management specialist who is willing to prescribe more meds.
PNE since 2002. Started from weightlifting. PNE surgery from Dr. Bautrant, Oct 2004. Pain now is usually a 0 and I can sit for hours on certain chairs. No longer take medication for PNE. Can work full time and do "The Firm" exercise program. 99% cured from PGAD. PNE surgery was right for me but it might not be for you. Do your research.

Re: neurontin question
I haven't heard of valium causing constipation. Doctors routiney prescribe 10 mg three times daily. What dose are you on?
