I had been on Gabapentin before for years. It's a drug that had to be slowly introduced to my body. I was at maximum dose for two years , until it stopped working. No adverse side effects though. I wish you well:)
@A MyChronicPainTeam Member I wonder if you won't get used to the dizziness... it affect me much worse, like I said before, but a few weeks back the give me Tegretol WITH all my other stuff - I was SO dizzy, nauseated I was in bed the whole weekend... and then it got better...
I AM KIND OF SCARED TO TRY AGAIN...But my Dr just sort of dismissed it and didn't offer and other choices..said I was too sensitive to meds..what does that mean.? I cant be walking around like i am drunk..so sad today
