"i was just given nucynta 50 mg twice a day for peripheral neuropathy following a botched surgical procedure by my pcp.  the pain was constant and burning.  it disrupted my life and is wrecking my relationship with my husband.  he doesn&#039;t understand the pain of neuropathy, neuritis and neuralgia.  i have been in pain for more than a year and i have tried many different pain medications such as vicodin, ultram, percocet.  nothing worked!  i have only taken 2 pills and i noticed that the pain is much improved.  it went from a 7 to a 4.  that is huge!  i did get nauseated and my breathing was shallow.  i also stumble a bit and i am not able to verbalize complete sentences.  that is disturbing, but it&#039;s worth it if i can experience less pain."
