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.

I've been having full body tingling, muscle spasms, and neck and back pain that radiates. I'm currently taking neugaba 150 and dulot 30 but get really bad sweating and anxiety if I miss a dose. Should I see a surgeon or stick with medication management for this? Worried about being dependent on these meds long-term.

Apollo is best for it.
