Aftr 9 mnths of tb meningitis my 22 yrs old fiancee stil feels terrible pain during her physical therapy of legs? she hs mild dystonia of right nd mild hemiparesis of left, taking baclofen+tizanidine
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neuropathy/neuralgia: Your fiancé has suffered a serious neurological condition. Clearly at nine months she is still working through significant neurologic deficits –hemiparesis, spasm and pain. Baclofen and tizanidine are primarily for spasms. Additional pain related medications include Neurontin or lyrica (pregabalin). She should be under neurologic care and treatment – hopefully already is. Avoid narcotics as possible.
