Pain
"I normally take narcotic pain pills.  I have, usually moderate, pain in my joints and especially in my back.  I decided to try the Gabapentin. It did really help for the pain, and I also had a very relaxed feeling.  A couple of things I did not like was: 
1) I was very clumsy and disoriented.  I couldn&#039;t walk right and almost fell over several times.  
2)  I laid down to watch a movie, since I was stumbling around my house, and I ended up passing out for hours... from about 3 to almost 7 today.  

Now the &quot;sleep aid&quot; isn&#039;t necessarily a bad thing, but maybe this medication is best only taken at night for some people, including myself."
