Don't understand the Gabapentin as it's an anti-convulsive...as for the steroid, 8mgs is a very low dose, so not surprised that you can't go lower...perhaps as you continue the Rituxan if you've been on it for just a few months...

Hi, I have RAD Fibromyalgia and Lupus. I am on Gabapentin for burning in my legs. It really helps. I am also on a very low dose of prednisone 2mg and Rituxan. My Lupus is in remission, at least the lab numbers say so. I think the Rituxan is to thank for that. I was bedridden for a while until I started the Rituxan. Now I am up and can go to lunch or take care of my grandkids. I feel like I have some quality of life.
