Hi,
Not too much has changed since our last entry. Denny is still experiencing sudden neuralgia attacks that do not seem to be diminishing in frequency or intensity. We saw Dr. Meena yesterday who gave us more prescriptions for our arsenal of medicines. She doubled the dosage of the Gabapentin, so he's at the maximum dosage of 1800mg each day. We got more Lidoderm pain patches, a tube of Trixaicin, and Oxycodone. The pain seems to start deep within his ear and radiate outward, so I'm not sure how anything will help, unless the Gabapentin kicks in. This "bump in the road" is the worst one so far. I sure hope it doesn't last as long as some reports say it can:(
Our love to all of you. Have a good weekend!
Carla

I wish there was a way for us to take some of Denny's pain away and put it on our shoulders. It just makes us cringe when we read about all the problems you two are dealing with.
Keep the faith and know we are still praying for recovery.

Donna Paltzer told me today about the severe pain your husband is in. I can only imagine. My shingles were on my bottom and lower back. I think I lived in the tub for a week. That certainly won't work with the inner ear. Know that you are always in my prayers.
I think everyone is in agreement that warmer weather can't come soon enough. It is time to come out of our hibernation and reinvigorate our mental status.
