that is one wicked drug. I was taking it for pain a few years ago and I had pulled a back muscle, with my sister in law being a liceanced massage therapist I let her work on my back...with in moments I was in horrible pain...within about 40 minutes I had a bruise on my back the size of a dinner plate! She was shocked told me to call the doc right away something was wrong...saw my family doc, he thought I had a blood disease, saw a blood doc, he thought so too...ran tests....nothing wrong...he asked if my husband beat me! I told him no, he didnt belive me, asked if I sleep walk which I do...he then said I prob. fell down a flight of stairs and didnt remember! hah! who wouldnt remember that!!! Finally I found out it was a side effect of the neurontin! I look like I had been beat with a bat....after stopping the med I have never bruised like that again. So, watch for side effects.
