    I'm not a doctor...However if one prescribes Effexor for you, please get a second opinion...Still feel the effects of it over 9 years after kicking it...
    Yeah, I’ve played with Paxil, Efexxor and a few others myself. I still have an adversion to fluorescent lights from the Efexxor, I can see and count the cycles of the lights. But at least the migraines are finally gone.
    I respect your sentiment.

    All true. My neurosurgeon suggested putting it off as long as possible in the hopes that another treatment will become available. He’s been working with artificial discs but isn’t impressed yet.

    Luckily I never had headaches except for the 6 weeks it took me to kick the stuff. i still have brain zaps though, and 3 years of missing memories...Thoughts and prayers are with you...

    I’ve done all we can afford. This literally bankrupted us the first three years. Between the injections, another MRI, this specialist, another MRI, that surgeon, another MRI, another specialist, another surgeon, three chiropractors, a kenisioligist, acupuncture, another specialist and another surgeon.
    If not by the grace of God, my wife getting a bonus from work, we’d have lost most everything. Even now I’m averaging six days a year in the hospital from medical issues, and even with good insurance it drains us.
    I assure you, I’ve looked into as many options as we can financially and I can mentally do so. It’s just not feasable for us to continue that path and emotionaly, it’s taxing on me to get built up just to be let down, yet again.
