ibromyalgia
"I was prescribed gabapentin at 300mg three times a day. After one week, I&#039;m feeling some relief from my fibromyalgia pain. My upper arms, for example, used to hurt just raising them to brush my hair. That pain is gone. It does still hurt, though, to be pinched in one of the key areas for fibromyalgia pain, like near the elbow. I&#039;ve only been on the medicine for 10 days and will stick with it to see if in time, all or more of the fibro pain disappears. As to side effects, dizziness and drowsiness are all I&#039;ve experienced, and those symptoms are annoying but I can live with them as long as the pain is gone. I&#039;ve come to accept that to get rid of the pain, I&#039;ll have to deal with a couple of inconveniences."
