I’ve never heard that gabapentin was useful for nerve pain. At least I know now it doesn’t help.

To try to resolve the nerve pain get a hold of a palliative care doctor, You can probably get a referral from one your doctors.They can work with you to try to resolve any kind of medical problem you have at to least make you feel better. I would imagine nerve pain would be one of their common issues.

That was what my first pain doc recommended it for.

@jeffmarc After my husband had surgery at Mayo Rochester for oropharynx cancer, his Mayo surgery team prescribed gabapentin for nerve pain, caused by them moving nerves around in his neck during the surgery on his tonsil and lymph nodes.
