New diagnosis and before diagnosis

Hello

my dr has decided to increase my gabapentin, was on 300x 3 times a day. increased by 1tablet last week, then another 1 this week and today the pain feels much worse.

I am so fed up, and sick of falling asleep as soon as I sit down. most days i’m asleep by 7 and thats it for the night. then wake up shattered and achey the next morning.i can vaguely remember that once i had a life

You’ve still got a fair bit of room for increasing the gabapentin, so don’t give up hope yet that your pain can be managed. Keep persevering - you’ll get there! And once you do, it should make a big difference to your fatigue - pain is really tiring!

(((hugs)))
