[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 506634, member: 1514"] I mentioned dystonia years ago after seeing a woman on Dr Phil I believe. Evidently one of the doctors ruled it out. I wouldnt be so quick to rule out conversion disorder. I realize they are going to tell you it is psychiatric and "all in her head" but in a way they are right, it is neurological and it is in her head! The treatments they would most likely give her would be the same no matter what. I would go back to that Dr Drew show and attempt to see what those kids were on. I believe the worst ones were on an AP and a strong anti-spasmodic. I take zanaflex for that and it works pretty well. It will make her loopy at first but she will adjust fairly quickly. I am really not sure what I think about the neurontin for her epilepsy. I guess if it works, dont mess with it. It also helps with muscle pain so that can be a good thing. They may want to consider cymbalta to help with the anxiety and pain. This is not at all to say it is in her head psychiatrically at all but all of our disorders start off in our brains at least in most cases. They brain tells our bodies what to do on some level.
