In reply to Doc, I found something that works, now what?, posted by linkadge on October 8, 2010, at 15:03:08
Since I decided to stop taking bupropion as it's made me super tense and I've already cracked one tooth on it that got infected and had to be pulled out.
I do need stimulating meds, ritalin was perfect for me until it pooped out, I've also just found out that 2 of my neck vertebrae have fused together and the muscle tension from 5 weeks of bupropion made it so much worse. I suppose they never would have found it if I hadn't tried it.
Anyhoo, I found an old pack of modafinil, that in conjunction with oxycodone and clonazepam seems to be quite good. It's only been a few days so far but when I see my doc next I'm going to ask him if I can try ritalin again as it relaxes me unlike bupropion did. That is one very stimulating drug and not good for my neck tension. Modafinil also make me a little tense so I'll see if I can get back on ritalin until I get the full results back from my MRI.
I wasn't on ritalin with oxycodone and I think it would be great, I'd also like to try neurontin or lyrica. I'll have to see what the neurosurgeon says, if I ever get in to see one!
