What was your diagnosis? How often do you take the gabapentine? My husband has constant pressure pain in his upper abdominal area. Compressed artery found on cta scan. But when he saw 2 vascular surgeons, 1 said that wasn’t his problem, and the other said it was, but because he did not respond to a nerve block, they said surgery would likely not help, and prescribed gabapentin, 3 times a day. He is not one for talking meds, so he has not started. He did take a similar drug called duluxotine, which did not help
