Peripheral Neuropathy
"My surgeons PA has me on a very low dose of hydro, (had back surgery less than 2 weeks ago), &amp; after a week of still being in pain, he added Gabapentin 600mg 3x/day. I woke from surgery &amp; the bottom of my right foot was no longer numb, below my knee to my ft the pain was near gone, (prior to surgery my ankle hurt so bad it felt broken 95% of time), &amp; the pain in my thigh &amp; hip was rapidly decreased daily.Yay my surgery was a success! So the only real pain I continued to have was from surgery itself (they shaved bone from L5 &amp; removed bulge) After being on Gaba for about 1 wk, numbness is returning. I&#039;ve experienced this before from another nerve med, so I KNOW it&#039;s the Gaba! I see him next week, but I&#039;m reducing dose gradually to 0 by then.More side effects like other&#039;s too."
