ibromyalgia
"I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in March. The past 3 months I have been experiencing severe hip pain radiating down my leg.  If I slept on my side (which is the side I favored) the pain would become so bad it woke me during the night.  Consequently I have not had a good nights sleep in months.  Went to my rheumatologist who suggested I tried gabapentin prescribed 1 pill 600mg for four days than 2 pills 600mg per day will be starting 3 pills per day.  I can honestly say what a huge difference this had made.  The pain is almost gone and I sleep through the night.  Also with little know side effects .  I will continue with this drug for as long as I need too."
