    Brain Zaps?!

    I just went off my "nerve pain" drugs. I was taking them because my fingers and toes sometimes have a diminished sensation and it is really annoying, causing me to lose sleep, etc. I was only on the meds for a month, and I plateaued and started feeling the diminished sensation again. BTW, how funny is that - I started "feeling" less sensation. Hah!

    Anyway, so lately I've been feeling weird. Weird dreams. Vertigo. Hard time concentrating... I started Googling, and it turns out this should be expected. The drug I was taking also happens to have some antidepressant effects, which seemed good, considering my RSI symptoms and diminished sensations in my extremities don't exactly make me ecstatic.

    Here is one article. Another article I read even talked about brain zaps. It's really weird. The doctor didn't tell me about this before I started taking the pills :(

    Hopefully my brain doesn't go zap when I'm playing poker tonight...
