Default report from the visit. 100 mgs of Gabapentin four times a day

HI,

The pdoc visit went fine.
I had my print outs (I made a second one for the past two nights' sleeping)
He copied by hand into his chart the sleeping schedule for the past two days.

I put my bottle of Gabapentin from the internist on his desk and he looked at it. We spoke about the dose from the internist.
I told him that I tried to take 300 for a week and messed up my sleep. He joked about my opening the capsules to figure out my dose. I said I want the option to try 300 again some time in the future. He said he would give me 400 a day so I had room to work.

He wrote me 'scripts for 6 months -- this is the second time that I can wait 6 months to see him. He used to make me come in every 4 or 5 months. He said that I can call anytime.

I went to the pharmacy and picked up my meds.
He wrote the Gabapentin 'script for 100 mgs four times a day.
Thank goodness that the craziness of the last 12 months of opening the capsules is over.
