Hi, @celiafachin -- thanks for your post and sharing some of your story with BMS. I'm sorry your BMS has been so hard and you've hardly had any real relief.

Additionally, just wanted to mention that we discourage the use of ALL CAPS for writing messages, since it is considered shouting in online communication. I'd just recommend turning the all caps off. See the community guidelines here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/community-guidelines/

I also removed your contact info, just because we want to protect your privacy and don't want you to get any spam.

Wondering how the gabapentin is working so far for your pain?

Hi, @pjperrine -- I wanted to add my welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Wanted to let you know that I moved your post over to the same thread that @jamienolson mentioned, as you will find many members talking about BMS here and may find it helpful reading some of the past posts.

How is the Gabapentin working for you?
