All my docs told me that not everyone tolerates it well, and it should only be used for pain caused by nerve signals getting confused. I'm wondering if a lot of docs misprescribed it? Or did the company's info lead to that issue?

I'm one of the lucky few that do ok on it and doesn't have weight gain issues. It helps a lot for me - especially my Fibro pain and to keep those electric shock-like pains caused by the MS at bay. Hoping this doesn't make it harder for the docs to prescribe this for me.
