ativan along with hydrocodone use to ease the banding but that does not have 
much effect anymore for me

I am having a bad day--the thrumming is at its worst and the banding has gotten 
wider and tighter--to the point I couldn't eat dinner or breakfast this 
morning.  Baclofen does nothing.  It took four glasses of red wine and two 
alergy pills to get me to sleep.  Being in the chair now is making the banding 
pain worse.
 any suggestions?

I remember hearing the concern of thrumming in the legs.

You know,,like the sound that a power transformer makes except it's a feeling,a 
buzzing or even sometimes like energy going up and down your leg or legs.

I gert this a lot and when it is real bad it is from the top of my head to the 
bottom of my feet.

sometimes it even feels like something poking at the bottom of my feet from the 
inside trying to get out.

perhaps i could harness it and drive a car with it!
I am taking the maximum dosage of baclofen and neurontin and was wondering if 
anyone ever ran across something to either slow this part down or even stop it.

sometimes it will last all day and can go from irritating to depressing.

most of the time when this does stop that's when the burning begins.
this on top of the wast banding and pain can drive me to thinking thoughts that 
are not normal for me.

 thoughts like,,perhaps i should find some marijuana and smoke it or perhaps i 
should drink enough to pass out or maybe i should punch someone and they will 
knock me out!

my Doc's know about it but have no answer.
