Meantime, I saw my pain doctor yesterday. He drug tested me to see if I have any drugs in my system other than the Tramadol and Baclofen that i have been presribed--specifically marijuana. They won't find anything since I have followed his instructions and have not taken anything other than the medications he prescribed. Since I am still having pain in the night and all day in my right sciatic nerve all the way to my toes, he added Gabapentin to my cocktail of pain meds. I take 1 at night for 3 days, then if I'm still having pain I will take an additional pill in the morning for 3 more days. I can add another pill then if the second pill doesn't stop the pain. If that doesn't work I need to let him know. I took the first one last night, and i didn't have pain until I awoke at 3am. So, I'm thinking this pill may help the problem in the long run. Im excited about the prospect of pain relief. It's amazing the toll chronic pain takes over time. I am kranky when I have pain, I know. I also feel tired and get down much more often. I'll be very happy to have some relief. As I said, my left side nerve pain has resolved since my back surgery on 12/22/17.
