I've been dealing with hypertension and have been taking Olmzest 20 every day. Recently, I've been experiencing this persistent neck and shoulder pain, so I went to see a neurologist who prescribed Trigabantin 300 and Etoshine 120. I've been a computer operator for the past 15 years, which probably adds to the stress. I've already started Trigabantin 300 and it's been two days now. But I'm a little hesitant about starting Etoshine because I read about its potential side effects. Could you give me some advice on whether it's safe to take both medications and if the benefits outweigh the risks? I'm just looking for a second opinion to ease my mind.

For almost two weeks now, I've been having trouble with my balance. It's making it hard for me to work. Whenever I move, I feel like my head gets heavy or light, and sometimes it's even like everything's spinning. Walking is really tough because I can't stay steady. I went to see an ENT doctor and took the medication they gave me for five days, but nothing's changed. How long does it usually take for these symptoms to go away, or do you think it could be something more than an ENT issue? I'm worried because this is affecting my job too. What should I do next?
