Would it be possible to take a poll on here to see how many people feel the Gabapentin actually works? Between it and Lyrica the vast majority of people on this forum are on one or the other.
I certainly do not want more pain, but like Mary I do not want to take anything I may not need.
Thank you!

I have been on Gaba for 2 yrs and although I have to take other medications it certainly helps in keeping things bearable, as far as addiction goes I really feel comfort is a more pressing issue rather than addiction.
