Hi everyone. I have MS and Trigemenal Neuralgia and have taken Gabapentin for both. Now I’m on a relatively lose dose of 300 and both my GP and Neurologist have told me to maintain this dosage even though my Trigemenal pain is non existent - i. e., 0, as I write now. I’ve accepted as I don’t feel adversely from this dosage. (Had gamma knife surgery 6 months ago and no pain sense then. Frightfully had MVD surgery 5 years prior that worked for many years until it didn’t.) For now, I hope Gabapentin keeps the pain at bay!

I hope so for you too. may I ask, what is MVD surgery? Do you mean vascular decompression?
