Hi Jean, Happy New Year! Let's hope it's a good one. So far I've been doing great this week with my latest decrease. After about 3 days I started having this weird sort of pain in my ear/cheek area. So I just took the evening neurontin a couple hours early and it went away as soon as I took it. All of this cold and snowy weather has been a great test for me, as that used to be a trigger also. I hope everything is going great with you. Still pain free? I hope so. Take care, Laureen
