Hello Darryl,
Side effects often diminish or go away altogether after being on them for awhile. Has the doctor been increasing your dose? If so, that could explain your side effect symptoms. May I ask what side effects your experiencing and your current dose?
Are you getting any relief from the Gabapentin?

Jake, Hi. Thanks for getting back. New to Gabapentin. One month. No increases yet. Still 100mg. Going for 1st follow-up next week. All commonly discussed side effects. Drowsiness, dizziness, coordination, strength loss, brain fog, generally slow brain function, general motivation decline. Some pain reduction results from Gabapentin however, also some nights supplementary pain meds needed. I believe this condition is finally going to teach me patience (joking)..................which I've always lacked. D T
