@allrounder It’s about quality of life for me!

First of all, being 72 I’ve seen lots of studies change back and forth and in between!

Coffee is bad. Coffee is good. Eggs are bad. Eggs are good. I take these articles with a grain of salt.

Secondly, my choice is stop taking gabapentin and live whatever life I have left in severe pain only to ‘possibly’ reduce my ‘chances’ of dementia, which a person can get without gabapentin.

I have an uncle I am 27 days older than and he is not on gabapentin and has dementia so severe he has been living for a couple of years now without knowing ANYONE, in his own world, unable to communicate whatsoever!

Or I make the choice I’ve made to be pain free and take the chance that I get dementia which I’m taking anyway the older I get!

I’ll take the quality of life decision!!

I am a strong Christ Follower who knows my eternity in The Kingdom is secure and after doing a deep dive into prophecy, since being retired, I realize I have a shot at the rapture which I’m hoping happens today!!!

COME JESUS COME!

I have heard that Gabapentin will give you brain fog. I took 2 pills after a pickle ball lesson and I fainted in my friends arms. It is dangerous and very addictive. I rarely take a pill. I know it helps with nerve pain but I would rather take a muscle relaxer.
