Welcome to NT! I'm sorry you are having such a difficult time right now. You will find lots of support and great information on here.

I have been on a low dose of Neurontin for years. I am fortunate and don't have many side effects. I occasionally get a little loopy when taking it but that's about it. I have never experienced back pain while taking it. You can call the pharmacist and ask if that is a common side effect of Neurontin.
