I wish I had seen this yesterday or the day before, but I've been bedridden.
What did the doc end up giving you? I was going to suggest he switch you to something different that Gabapentin -- I HATED that stuff and it never worked for me.

Plus the muscle relaxer that worked well for me was Soma, but it CAN be addictive.

And all Tramadol ever did for me was give me a Migraine from hell!
I really feel for you. I hope your doc gave you SOMETHING to help with your pain. Let us know will you? God bless & please take care. Hugs, Lee
