I didn't know there were meds that could lessen the tight banding feeling and would love to hear feedback on what meds work and of any side-effects from them. Never heard of Tegretol before but will look into it. Thanks! On Mon, Aug 17, 2009 at 5:09 PM, heyjude48...@aol.com wrote: *Hi

Connie, I take 10mg Baclofen 3 times daily and 100mg Lyrica approx every 8 hours. I think the Baclofen helps the most with the banding and know I would be bed- ridden without it. I've been on Baclofen for five years and on this dose for the last three. Patti - Michigan connie markovich

Hi Jeanne, The banding has been exactly the same for me. It has been with me since day one and starts underneath my breasts and goes all the way around my abdomen. When it gets real bad, it continues downward until I feel completely enveloped by it. Sometimes it hurts so badly
