Good afternoon@debduhll, and thank you for sharing your experience with Gabapentin. I would like to know how you stopped the Gabapentin totally. Did you replace it with another medication for your chronic back pain?

And another question......other than being a bit mumbly jumbly did you have any stumbles or falls? And did you find yourself forgetting appointments or returning calls, etc.?

Oops.....one more question. Did your medical professional advise you about the options?

Thanks so much. I am now down from 3600 mg per day to 200 mg per day. My PCP doesn't want me to stop altogether. I have substituted medical cannabis. That takes some planning.
Hope you are enjoying Connect.
May you be free of suffering and the causes of suffering,
Chris

Chris--Your experience with gabapentin mirrors mine for post-stroke pain. I, too, am experimenting with medical THC--microdosing with 2.5 mg-- per my physiatrist recommendation as I get started. Can you share how you are doing your "planning" with medical cannabis and gabapentin throughout the day? Thanks so much! Rebecca
