Gabapentin side effects?

Hey Poppy67,
I think my reaction has been quite the opposite, and, I just realized my calculations were wrong on the amount of Gaba I am taking because my pills are 300mg each, so I am taking approximately 3000mg/day and I can't seem to keep a healthy weight up... possibly due to the other medical diagnose neuro gave me after doing tests and found flaws in a gene. I have found, my order of so many daily processes is so distracting that, by the time I realize I've eaten nothing for 24 hours and, decide lunch is the time to "binge eat", thoroughly disrupting this brain even further. I'll apologize again because I am wandering away from the subject with every sentence I write. I think Gaba has helped my seizure disorder but not relief from the perpetual pain of my right arm. I can't fully tell what the benefits should be, but I have some certainty, it has not produced enough relief for the reason I need or want.

3000 mg a day? Man, that sounds really high. I was taking 900 mg a day and thought that was high. Who prescribed that dosage?

Thanks for responding. I have neuropathy in my feet.GABA has helped the pain so I continue to take it. It just causes me to feel so much hunger. I’ve gained 10 psd. I guess it affects people differently. I’m sorry it doesn’t help your reasons for taking it. I wish you all the best. Please stay in touch with any changes you experience. You’ll be in my prayers.
