Good morning fibro friends,
I went to see the endocronologist yesterday and I was very impressed. She sat with me for a hour taking my history and symptoms. I had a blood test for adrenal insuffiency and hormone imbalance. In the meantime I was prescribed Gabapentin. Has anyone tried it? It's for neuropathy cases. I do have a lot of nerve damage from a work injury. I took 100 mg of the medication last night and I had to add my Melatonin and L-Theanine when I couldn't fall asleep. It knocked me out for 6 hrs. I've not had that knocked out experience since before my fibro. I'm feeling groggy this morning and somewhat less refreshed but since coming down with fibro have I ever felt as refreshed when I wake as I use to? No. I also woke this morning clenching my teeth and feeling tighter than usual in my neck and shoulders. I'm going to be trying 200 mg tonight to see if I can fall asleep without the supplements.
I'd love to hear if anyone else has tried this medication?
Thanks!
