Welcome @miho, Sorry to hear your pain worsened with gabapentin. There is another discussion where members have asked similar questions that you might want to read through.

Can Gabapentin make neuropathy pain worse?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/can-gabapentin-make-neuropathy-pain-worse/

Have you talked with your doctor about the gabapentin not helping? Are you able to share a little more about your diagnosis?

Gabapentin has helped my pain but the med has side effects.Read up on the med before starting to us it.
