Anyone tried Gabapentin for Fibromyalgia?

I was on 300mg x3 times a day. Then I dropped down to 100mg x2 times a day and 300mg at night. Now I am at 100mg x3 times a day. I am in considerably more pain and I’m trying to decide if it is worth it.

So, the 300mg dose 3x a day did help with pain relief? It sounds like doses lower than that did not help? Did it help you sleep at all, because I struggle with that as well as pain? Did you have any other side effects other than weight gain and water retention? Thank you.
