Wink Peripheral neuropathy

I already posted this this morning and I can't find it!! You can tell I am a newbee, can't you. Anyway, I have been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy and started taking gabapentin two weeks ago now. I see no change so far other than at nighttime I am extremely tired and go to bed too early. How long does it take to see a significant change, if ever? Does anyone have any thoughts of what kind of meds work best for neuropathy? I also take percocet and this does help somewhat some of the time, and at other times, I am still in agony when I take it. There of course is no rhyme or reason (at least to me) why the pain is so bad some of the time and kind of bearable at other times. Does anyone have any ideas of what types of pain meds work the best for neuropathy and also other drugs? Of course, I have a doctor's appt and will ask him, but I would like to have a heads up before I go to him. Thanks in a advance.
