The two primary medications for peripheral neuropathy are Neurontin (gabapentin) and Lyrica. Sometimes Cymbalta is also prescribed for neuropathic pain. Of course, the patient's doctor will have to decide what medication is best for him/her, and at what dosage. I have seen gabapentin prescribed at relatively low dosages, then titrated upward as needed.
Since Neurontin is available in the US as a generic, gabapentin, it is not as pricey as Lyrica. It has also been around longer, so more is known about how it works, and the side effect profile is shorter than that for Lyrica. However, Lyrica works better for some people. Cymbalta is primarily an antidepressant, but has recently been approved for use for neuropathic pain. As far as I know, any of these medications can be taken along with MS Contin; none are narcotics.
To get more specific information, I would suggest that you look at each drug's website; you should be able to find them by doing a Google search for each drug. Although these will be the drug manufacturer's websites, so you need to keep that in mind, they will still have helpful information about the drug, and may also have co-pay assistance programs or rebate coupons.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
