Guest guest Posted September 1, 2001 Report Share Posted September 1, 2001 -Dear Ardie, Having pain, that can come with TCS, IS a bummer, and it can naturally make one depressed. Please talk to your Neuro. and reg. Dr. about this. There are many good anti-depressants that can help. With all the rapid advances in technology, I believe that there will be better treatments for us in the not too distant future. So,Please don't get discouraged, keep trying , and get other Drs. opinions on different meds. available for your pain, if your current Drs. aren't helping you or willing to change meds. to work on an effective combination. Hoping you'll be feeling better soon, SueW > Lynn and Sue, > > Like you two I suffer from tremendous back and leg pain.
