I’m trying to recall how I felt taking the Gabapentin……I felt really good, except my numbness in my feet remained. The burning in my feet stopped, as long as took the med. I recall feeling very content and wondering if I might get addicted to it. I liked it. I didn’t feel anxious and I don’t think I had those intense episodes …..I call them episodes of adrenaline rush. It’s like my insides are so intense and ready to shake. Weak at the same time. I did get them after I stopped the med.

I continued to have the episodes until several weeks ago. I discuss it with my therapist. I also used a technique called ‘tapping” when I felt it coming on. It wasn’t a panic attack. I had those many years ago, but the adrenaline rushes were different. I got these after covid. I hope I’m done with them. My burning has left too! I hope it’s a sign that my other issues will improve as well.

I would take Gabapentin if not for the blurry vision. I just couldn’t. I will try Lyrica though, if my insurance will cover it. They have denied it.
