Although Gabapentin is an Anticonvulsant
it's a first-line drug for Neuropathy and provides relief to many.
It didn't work for you or me but surely you wouldn't deny it to those it helps.
I hope you find relief,
Jake

Neuropathy, yes, but joint pain, no. Acts on nerves, not joints.

It is very helpful for nerve pain-for some. I can tell when I forget to take mine by my pain level. You just have to weigh the side effects you are having. Your body will often adjust but if not you may not be able to tolerate the drug. If I had a full time job I could not deal with my side effects not working the medication is definitely worth the side effects.
