I suffer from chronic pain in the pekvis I have a neurstimulator implanted and take 10 mg methadone a day to control pain. My Dr has suggested I try Eppilim. I am a bit reluctantant as I have tried Lyrica and pregablin and couldnt cope with the side effects. I ve also read Epilim can cause sedation and I just don t want to get tired
Hi, I would suggest that you try Emilia (sodium valproate) if your pain is still persistent and not able to cope with current medications. Emilia works differently than Lyrics/ pregabalin. I would suggest you to discuss pros and cons of using Emilia with your care provider and initiate the treatment. You might need to have baseline and follow-up liver function tests if you are starting on Emilia. Hope I am able to help you. Thanks.
