I hear you. Well, I am in the middle of my journey with Neuropathy or SFN. I am happy for not having pain to date so gabapentin will probably not help. Right?

gabapentin also puts me to sleep, I take it 2hrs. before bed but if you have no pain I would not take it as it does not seem to help numbness.(which I don’t have) Helen

Yup, gabapentin only helps for neuropathic pain...does zero for numbness, nor does any other pain medicine.
