Anyone using Gabapentin and getting bad leg oedema?

Desperate Dan here! The Gabapentin helped along with Tramadol but now have worst leg oedema ever, even my static ex. don't help and walking very restricted as pain too much, 7+ fractured vertebrae. X ( Osteopath) has done some drainage last few days which helps but this morning my ankles are swollen though my lower legs much better, never had it in thighs before- I could strangle someone with my now huge thighs - I have a list... 😂

Cut down the Gaba but rib spasms returned to agony level esp. when I get up so increased Tramadol, already have Fentanyl patches 25 mcg, going round in circles here. Have phone appt. with surgery pharmacist Thurs, any ideas what I can use as strong pain killer for nerve damage/ spasms ? muscle relaxants don't work atall and make me stoned, nope. 🤪

Thanks you lovely people, hope you're having a pain freeish day. 🤗
