Lepra

Hi all, So since Christmas I have been on Lyrica, Max dose tapered up to was 200 mg (100 in morning and 100 in evening). I take them for nerve pain due to previous disc surgeries. I have been in a bit of a fog since starting with increased anxiety and pain. I was prescribed 10 mg of Escitalopram (Lepraxo) a day about a month ago as was having a lot of dark thoughts and severe anxiety. I have always had anxiety but seemed to be able keep it at bay (well perhaps not as well as I thought I was!) Anyway, I took my last dose of Lyria four days ago and only took 100mg that morning.

I am sure I must be taking medications which may be technically not compatible with one another. Please advise what to avoid or replace. My medication: Morning = Thyronorm + Glucomet + Pentadac + Shellcal SD After breakfast = Providac + Refagut , Minipress, Lapresar + Cardac After Little gap = Joindic Super + Glugen + Tydol Evening Before food = Pentadac After food = Refagut + Providac Followed by Minipress, Leprasar + Cardac Followed by Atorvastatin before Sleep = Sulpatec + Nexito plus.

I had lepracy 2yr before but my feet &hand do not get the sensation properly as my vein have been damage can I take neurobin & when should I take will it help me ## Hello, Naina! How are you? Leprosy can cause permanent nerve damage, but I am sorry that you're having to deal with its effects. As to the Neurobion, it is a complex of B vitamins that are known to help with nerve health and function, so it could help, but there's no way to know, until you try it. The FDA warns that it may cause nausea, due to its potency. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I get numbness under my feet.at night.is tis tablet gud..how long does it take to work
