Well, my Amazon order came yesterday and I took one 588 mg. pill at about 2 pm. Mistake. Didn't sleep all night. The extra energy is very welcome but not at 1 am. Definitely increased energy. I am also cutting my mid day dose of Gabapentin from 600 to 300 mg. so far no increase in pain, slight increase in feeling furry things running all over feet and legs. If nothing else it gives me something new to think about.
Trying desperately to lose weight. Seems stuck, probably combined effect of meds, inactivity, and looming menopause. I cannot stand up or walk carrying the baby, so I assume the same is true of extra weight overwhelming weakened muscles. Physical therapy is also increasing muscle spasms, but I am hopeful of strengthening something.
I will take it early in the morning and see if that works better.
