> Actually I am off the verapamil now- it helped for about 2-3 weeks- then seemed to stop (this happened before to me). But this time the constipation was so bad and I gained weight very quickly so I ended up feeling "crappy" (literally and figuratively) and fat. Now just taking the gabapentin with adderall and at night taking the lunesta. (Verapamil was ok for a few weeks only for me)

Curious on the weight gain - I believe its weight neutral but I suppose it can differ.Yes, my doctor mentioned the thing about "feeling crappy"... I had some odd headache and strange feeling but it went away.
I don't know if its doing anything but I'm still, unless I can tell if its really doing something worse, finishing up the trial, since I did ask for it and it was one of the more obscure things I hadn't tried yet.
It took some convincing to get an okay on it, I mean in rare occasions it can cause problems, as it is a heart medication.
We'll see.
