So I wonder about cutting way back on the gabapentin and nortriptyline. I'm sure there have been discussions about tapering off from gaba and nortiptyline before; can anybody give me advice about letting the Percocet and Robaxin substitute for them? Or maybe direct me to an earlier thread?

Maybe Mrs. D can help you with this. I would not do anything without talking to your doctor first. If it is at all possible to take off tomorrow, do so and call your doctor.
