I have always had hip pain and burning. I am ready to ditch the gabapentin as it is messing up my head and doing little for the pain. Seeing the GP on Tuesday. Will ask for a referral. I like tramacet but I may have trouble getting more and getting addicted. I heard that Celebrex is worth trying.
Anyone have suggestions ?

I have been taking gabapentn for nerve damage in my right leg after back surgery last November. It is helping. However now I have a fractured bone in my pelvis from osteoporosis. Could the gabapentin weakened my bones more?

Good question.

Is there a "Pain Clinic" in your area or a Neurologist who treats pain? A certified Pain Dr. will help you transition from medications slowly.....and still have pain relief .

Will a pain clinic prescribe medical marijuana. I would like to try it instead of gabapentin. Nearest clinic from me is 500 miles.
