After just being diagnosed, it is important to research the different types of medications and treatment options; and then discuss your options with your neurologist. In addition, online support groups have served to provide encouragement and information to patients, from patients. I would have definitely joined one earlier, had I known I could. Talking with others who have been diagnosed helps make sense of the doctor-speak, and it helps learn of non-medical ways that patients have found successful in controlling their pain.
