Hi!
My brother takes Gabapentin and gets some relief.
I took Gabapentin and it did nothing.
Both of us developed issues with our memory while on it.
He still takes it on occasion.
I went off.
It was my neck down to my finger tips and my lower back.
After years of pain with no help, I PERSONALLY decided for surgery..
I know many people can't or won't go that route.
I've never looked back...
Glad I did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gabapentin is a great drug, for controlling seizures. It is not a pain med. I took it and it was not effective as a pain med. It is very effective at putting money in the hands of big Pharma especially if they talk you into taking Lyrica instead of Gabapentin
