I took my first dose of neurontin last night for nerve pain. I became more dizzy than I have ever been in my life. Falling over and had to hang on to the bed. I was terrified. I have been dizzy often never anything in my life like this and it is still lasting almost 20 hours later, though not as bad. It was the lowest dose made. 100 mg.

I have diabetic neuropathy in my hands and feet, maybe compounded by P.A.D. (for which I'm taking Plavix) and it's been getting worse. I take Hydrocodone/APAP 7.5/325 Q4 prn. I used to take maybe 1/day avg. Now I'm up to 3-5 daily. They've refused me stronger opiates due to severe heart and lung disease. Fine, but the pain is driving me insane. I'm functioning less and less and spending more and more time in bed watching movies due to the pain.
I'm going to be starting another round of home… read more

Is it worth the cost? I notice many products out there but are outrageously expensive one has the word freeze in it. on a very limited budget and resources, i cannot spend extra monies on gimmicks or products that cost 10 cents to manufacture and 30 dollars to sell. looking… read more

I do not know if the medication is even still working for my pain. I just am wondering if there are other meds for my pain due to some possible new side effects. Or is it affects?
I'm just the opposite I take 300mg twice a day. And I get lethargic with out them.
Lyrica has the same properties but 4x as expensive. But I think meds affect individuals differently. 🤔
