Anyone Have Chronic Pain Syndrome & Visual Hallucinations? What Do You Take For The Chronic Pain?

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭
Providence, RI

Visual hallucinations are new for me. Just dx with PD today. Doc wants me to try to d/c the pain meds to see if that eliminates the hallucinations, but I still need something for pain. I'm currently using hydrocodone, codeine & buprenophine. What are you using for pain? Gaba hasn't helped in the past..

I take Meloxicam, which helps quite a bit. It has a 24 hour half life so it does build up in your system if you take it regularly - one tablet a day.
