painful shocks

Mikki82 · 04-16-2008, 07:37 PM

-when someone close the door very loud;
-something is falling down;
-someone sneezes;
-etc;

I feel the noise in my legs. Like a electrical shock. It 's very painful. I don't know how to explain it. The doctor gave me carbamazephine and neurontin. It's not working.
what can i do? Any ideas?

I know exactly what you're talking about. The way I explain it is that the blood in my veins goes from 5mph to 100mph in the blink of an eye. It isn't painful to me, but I know what you're talking about, and I actually like the feeling. Whatever it is, it is something I feel below my level of paralysis, so I enjoy it.

i get similar shocks, but mine do the opposite and kill the pain. anytime i get startled by something like that, especially stopping fast in the car, its like an adrenaline rush. unfortunately, the pain is back in about 30 seconds.

Yeah, it's the worst, isn't it. It's just like torture. It really ruins any bit of fun one tries to have. As time passes with more adjustment to the injury the shocks lessen. I no longer have them. But they were so bad at one time that pill bottle caps being snapped back down felt EXACTLY like the electric fences that kept the farm animals in. Which is enough to make people drop to their knees when they get shocked like that.

Mine aren't painful. It feels like all of my lower back muscles flex at once.

Nervepain is horrible. Sometimes it's making me crazy
but the shocks are always unexpected that's also the reason why they are so painful

a life with pain is very tiring. I am sure that everyone would agree that.

When I 1st started taking NervRottn and baclofin it seemed to increase my "noise pain" aka(Entire Body Electric Shocks from being startled from the sllightest thing) I want to say it was Nervrottn, Because i switched to Leryica and it subsided. Still experince it from time to time, but no where as servere. Oddly though, recently my AB brother took 1 of my baclofin and started to experence noise pain as well? So the possibility of it being the baclofin seems likely.

sharp noise shocks....hurt like a bitch..tho mine have gotten a little less frequent last couple years..i think i startle less easily, and that seemed to make it worse

I get that too.. except it isn't painful. Just a weird jolting sensation.
