Hello yes definitely gabapin can be taken upto a lot more dose than you're taking. Please increase the dose if needed. If you feel any dizziness thats when you stop increasing the dose. Every body tolerates it differently I usually start with 100 mg once and raise it to 450 mg thrice as and how the patient tolerates baclofen or liofen can also be increased (added with daily stretching exercises) to decrease stiffness remember- these tablets only help you deal with the symptoms only. Not the cure for syrinx please do feel free to consult me if you have queries.

Hello, thanks for the query. With multiple morbidities it very essential to take the vaccine as without that one is more vulnerable to the infection. Plus the severity can be more. So please go ahead and take the doses. Thanks.

I had tingling and muscle tremors since 4th day of covishield vaccination in my body (9th oct I took the dose). I never had this issue before the vax. I also felt my right hand become weak and fingers somewhat shaky. My medical history: have upper-back pain from past 3 years now. It is only painful when I sit with an incorrect posture. However, had shooting pain at the exact area after the vaccination which was on and off for 1st few days. Had kidney stones last year, have no issues about it at present. I was advised to take 2b12 for a month by a doctor after vaccination side effects started. I have been taking this for 9 days now. The muscle tremors and tingling has reduced a lot, though not completely gone, I feel a bit better now. I don't feel much issues in the day since a few days now. The side effects mostly happen at night. This is also making me anxious and I get scared to sleep at night. I endup being awake and then sleep in the morning. I am taking a lot of fluids - juices and tender coconut. I am assuming the intake of fluids and 2b12 helped in reducing the side effects. Maybe I really am deficient on b12. However, I from past 3 days feel slight nerve pain at random places in the body for few seconds - my index finger (right hand), left arm, my upper back (left side), neck bone area. These 4 incidents happened at 4 different days and lasted only for few seconds. I was advised to take gabapin m 100 if after 10 days of taking b12 I don't see any improvement by a doctor. (this was advised a few days ago). I haven't started taking gabapin yet. Is it advisable to start this tablet? Do I also continue 2b12 with it? Out of the 4 instances mentioned above, 3 happened during night. Only the pain near the neck bone happened in the day. The weakness in my hands and legs is still there but not regular. I only feel weak at times. Will this also go off like my previous symptoms? Or is it something to worry about? Do I need to see a specialist - a neurologist or cardiologist? (are my symptoms anything to do with autoimmune disease or anything serious? - please help me in knowing this.) my previous symptoms reduced after I started taking b12 tablets so do I assume, it is it only a vitamin deficiency? Please help! tell me things as is, please give proper guidance as I want to get rid of these issues as soon as it can. These side effects are really worrying me as I never ever had any issues of these sort before taking the jab.

Dear lybrate-user many of the conditions you are facing could be due to the cervical lordosis. However, this can be checked. Normally, exercises and physiotherapy along with pain medication should have helped you. Could you share your reports? Any blood tests that have been done? If not, based on your symptoms, please get a mantoux test done and a cbc at least. We must rule out tuberculosis as you mentioned you have fever since a long time. Take care.

My pain started from 2 fingers of right hand around 1.5 years ago and has reached to both my arms and upper back. Docs treated all abnormalities found in blood tests, arthritis problem ruled out bt mri of spine showed :partial disc desiccation at multiple levels. Diffuse disc bulge is seen at c5-6 level, indenting anterior thecal sac, ap canal diameter is 10 mm. Posterior disc bulge at l4/l5 with annular tear causing thecal sac indentation. Ligamentum flavum hypertrophy is seen at mid dorsal levels. Ketoflam along with gabapin nt for 3 weeks reduced some pain but alone gabapin nt is not helping at all. The pain is so severe that I find simple tasks (such as brushing teeth / holding mug or phone etc.) so difficult. Following exercises n using warm gel pad too. Initially had tried homeopathy n ayurveda too wid no benefit. Will problem with my spine ever reverse?

Hi spine problems are sometimes frustrating. They don’t get better soon, as never doesn’t listen to you. They need time and patience. Sometimes it never get better. You need to keep your options open. Regarding your scan, you do have problem, doesn’t sound severe compression. Other compression of nerves will happen as coincidence. Like cubital tunnel syndrome if little and ring finger involved, if index and middle finger involved means carpal tunnel syndrome. Once someone correct these, things will improve. Wish you all the best. Get it checked by orthopaedic surgeon. Update me.

If you have leg pain then you have to rule out the causes for having leg pain. First of all check your weight and your haemoglobin levels, as anaemia always leads to the symptoms of being tired and also having leg pain though there are no issues with the knee joint or back pain. If not if the pain radiates down the back of thigh and legs then it might be due to sciatica. Kindly consult the nearby physiotherapist. Hope you recover soon from the leg pain.

This looks to be associated with your diabetes. Probably diabetic neuropathy. Other less likely is radiculopathy. It needs to be evaluated clinically and with some tests if possible. Observed treatment and sugar control with early start of treatment for neutlropathic pain. As tramadol/ultracet or paracetamol won't be much of a relief in it. U need specific meds for neutlropathic pain if not contraindicated otherwise like pregabaline/ amitriptyline. U can consult.
