gabapentin withdrawl

[Guest guest]

After having a serious flare up while I was on 3000 mgs of gabapentin

I realized it wasn't doing anything for me. One of my Dr's wanted me

to try the pregabilin because of the lower doses, lower side effects

and other benefits (general anxiety disorder which I definately

have). Based on my research, I was willing to try the Pregabalin but

then tried the low oxalate diet and I am doing GREAT. Much lower pain

for five weeks now.

If your wife goes off the gabapentin tell her to go very slow - I am

down to 900 mgs a day. I tried to go off 3000 mgs in two weeks and

made myself very sick.
