I was on 1800mg of Gapapentin but it didn't work. Getting side effects coming off it gradually had last one today. I was highly anxious and shaking last two mornings. I asked two pharmacists who said it would be withdrawal symptoms. Anyway I am starting Pregabalin 100mg per day to start. Two weeks at that then increase dosage by GP. Not pleased at having to wait two weeks but that's how my GP operates.

I'm sorry to hear you are having side effects. Seems pretty common. Gabapentin is a tough one to come off of, from what I've read. My doc says duloxetine is the next med to try if I max out on gabapentin with no relief.
