Gabapentin withdrawls while preparing for neurology tests

I worry too about whether my Gaba dosage is the explanation for my current remission. I'm going to start reducing the dosage as an experiment to try and find out. Right now I'm taking 400mg at 6AM and 400mg at 6PM. I'm thinking of doing 300mg at 6AM and continue 400mg at 6PM for about a week and, if that's not a problem, going 300mg at night for week. I've been told by two doctors that I should feel free to experiment.

I wonder the same thing! I am going to talk to my doctor about this. I still have pain but it's manageable most of the time. If I am walking or standing too much then I am in a lot of pain (so needless to say I don't do much of that, but I wish I could!) But I wonder if my pain is mostly manageable BECAUSE of gabapentin or if I am just doing better than I was 5 months ago. It's hard to know if going 48+ hours without it will have an effect that quickly or not, but I will find out next week!
