I've been on Gabby, 900 mg a day, for over four years with no side effects. I still have pain from the foot drop rhat began the very day after I fully recovered from COVID. But each time I tried to wean myself off of gabapentin, I notice the increase in discomfort.

I have foot drop from nerve damage too, but no pain. Mostly it feels numb like it isn't there or like a block of ice. I use a AFO ankle foot orthotic for a time, but I get by without it.

I did too. I just took myself off for about 3 weeks. The pain in my feet and calf were terrible! Like razor blades scraping my toes and discomfort and spasms in my calf.
