I sorry for your pain from that meds. GABAPENTIN was started in the 1990’s and was made for pain. What type of pain? Legs, feet, or different body, but for me, I use that med, 3-times-a-day to anti-seizure on my TBI - a bicycle accident 12 yrs ago.

Cweelen9, you started to 100 mg then up to 1500 mg and lose the ability of that med for pain It never, ever was not my pain. Two years ago, from falling down in my garage, hit my 2 rear-ends and sent deep-pain under my rear-ends & my back of each bottom legs. I started this med, that anyone could buy the 100s like Walmart, but I used the 400s of pain-helping. Another 3-6 mths didn’t help me of my bottom of my body; pain, deep pain is there. Yes, I lost my balance that’s still moves to me of falling on my tight knee-down.

Over 2 mths ago, my doctor gave me a choice of fixing, or not, pain from my rear-ends down:
1) No help anti-pain - Leave it by itself and, maybe, it will work
2) Maybe help anti-pain - He could send me a newer anti-pain med.
3) Could help anti-pain to end it - 1.5 mths ago, I closed a surgery right close from my right-side of my top rear-end to the bottom of my back. I spent the next 5-days at that hospital. The pain was gone - no anti-pain meds at that hospital. So losing pain - that’s gone - and trying to walk a different way - with no pain. How would I needed to change a diff way of walking? That was there, even after my surgery. That changed of working on my exercising, lifting my balance and legs… stretching the muscles is a bit percentage.

Today, me weakness of my balance is still here; any pain of anything - NO, thankfully; walking again - only on my 4-step (sorry, my memory of that word is not there). Today, I don’t hold 100% of my 4-step, but hold things in my kitchen.

Sorry, my surgery was fixed my back to move my largest nerve between several part of my bone that’s stretches one part to another for 5 parts my lower back. I had photos on paper, but I can’t find it. I think my wife has everything. s
