Hello all,

I am new and I would like to know about working a very physical job while taking 2400mg of gabapentin. I try and do things around the house, but more often than not I can't complete a task due to the medication. Does anyone have a similar situation@?

Hello JonJay55and welcome on board.gabapentin

You say you are taking 2400 mgs of gabapentin...this is a high dose. Is it for a chronic pain condition?

You also say you can't complete tasks around the house due to this medication.

Could you tell a little more before I can offer any advice?

I agree with what Bananas5 says.

Take time to give more detail. Much to do with handling chronic pain conditions relies very heavily with personal investigation into the what how and why? So by giving a bit more detail you are helping yourself with your own investigation into your own condition..
