You may want to read up on gabapentin. Most patients take it to relieve nerve pain. I have plenty of nerve disfunctionand numbnes; but no pain, and neither of the neurologists that I have seen has suggested that I take gabapentin.

Yes after suffering with undiagnosed IC I was finally referred by my urologist to the pain management clinic who prescribed to lyrica which is pregabalin. I always research any drugs that are prescribed and I am fully aware of the dependency issues. That said I refuse to have excruciating pain that keeps me in bed and nonfunctional. Since starting lyrica 2 yrs. Ago I have had no pain and can now function. Everyone must decide for themselves. I have never found anything noble in suffering when there are options available.
