The symptoms can be moderated to an extent with Lyrica or Neurontin.  Check with your doctor.  There may be an electrolyte imbalance or something else going on, to cause the discomfort.

Hello there, I was on the nueronton (sorry spelling) I maxed out on that and am now on Lyrica and am slowly upping the dose. Summers are the worst on me because of the heat and humidity. It makes me weaker as well. I have Ataxia Ocular Motor Apraxia (AOA). I don’t know what else I can do for the pains? Do you have any other ideas. I see a doctor every 6 weeks and another doctor every 6 months and physical therapy off and on through the year and so forth and no one can come up with anything different than what I’m already on or doing. Anyway, penny for your thoughts - Thanks for the advice!
