Hey Allan,
I have been on Neurontin for about 2 or 3 years. I am also working my way up on the max dosage scale. The only side effect I ever had trouble with was drowsiness. When the doc would up the dosage it would take a few weeks for my body to get use to it and I didnt want to sleep all the time. It worked for me for the longest time but now I am having more problems with pain then before and I have been put on a fetynal patch along with neurontin.

Hope this helps you some. Any questions please ask.
