Hi there aud,

I take gabapentin for burning pain mainly in my arms, but legs aswell and they have been a godsend.

I love them, some people say they have quite bad side effects but the only one i have is weight gain but i would rather that than that pain as it really makes me cry.

My friend is on them too and they have made a difference with her too and she is still working on them too.

You could ask your gp about these they dont suit everyone though.

Hi Jazher, Thanks for replying. I have been on gabapentin and I think they was starting to help me, and like a fool I came off them , if I dont get any relief from pregabalin I will go back on them. Take Care Aud xx

Hi

I have been taking gabapentin 1 x 300 for two days. The pain has gone but I'v ehad funnt effects. The first night I felt a bit drowsy and a bit drunk. Last night I felt ok but this morning I feel very drowsy and a bit spaced out. I love not having any pain but will these strange effects go away? Has anyone experienced this?
