Hi ,
if you have idiopathic Small Fiber Polyneuropathy and you have the same symptomes like me . My medication reduce the pain by 70 % . The docs tried alot of medications with me before we reach to this combinations . The main one of this list is the Decarb high CBD .
@cmartinjr, You may need to adjust the gabapentin to get a better dose at night for sleeping without the tingles, needles, and burning. I do not handle gabapentin well during the day and have found medical cannabis to control the pain quite well.
However, for nighttime medication, I take 1200 mg of gabapentin and a cannabis tincture. It works very well and even assures that when I wake up in the morning, the pain will be moderate.
Keep experimenting with dosages and medications that can help. Let me know if you want more information on medical cannabis. Be safe and protected tonight. Chris
If you tolerate the Gabapentin well consult your doctor to see if he/she will increase it. I am on 3000 mg a day now and that has helped tremendously.
