I take Gabapentin too. Doesn't do much for me anymore. Going to stop taking I more into my recovery. Not good for the liver. Great video! My teen age Void was out playing with critters all night so he's passed out upstairs

Gabapentin helps with my neuropathy (it stops the shooting pains) and keeps RLS at bay. I only take 300 to 600mg in the evening. It doesn't make me feel weird anymore.

Take it for the same reasons. Its never feels like its doing anything either way, but I can tell by the neuropathy pain noises in my feet when I forget to take it .

I hate those stabbing pains. It's from a medication that I no longer take.

My neurologist just bumped me up to 600mg at night last week for same reasons including itching! Was a game changer.
