   Needling,burning,cramping pain in neck & throat under ear worse when move arm (Neuropathy board)

6th February 2008
Hi vital, I take Soma 350 mg 4 x a day for the spasms in my neck. For the nerve damage, I take Neurotin 3600 mg a day which is like 600 mg every 4 hrs and this keeps the burning and extreme pain under control. I also take Norco 10/325 mg 4 x a day for pain and Celebrex for arthritis pain. I've also had Botox treatments but they didn't help and are expensive also you have to have them every 3 months. Some suggest medications that are used to treat Parkinsons disease. Also suggest medications like Keppra and beta-blockers including "off -label' uses for some blood pressure medications. There is also a medication called Sinemet that is a L-dopa that is used to treat it. I see you're on Lyrica 75 mg a day maybe you need an increase in this to help with the burning sensation. I believe the highest dosage is like 300 mg a day and maybe a different type of muscle relaxer. Two go ones are Soma and Baclofen maybe you could try one of these to help you with the spasms. I hope this helps answers some of your questions.
