In my case, I have been seriously depressed. I took it for one week, and just about became suicidal on the drug. My doctor did tell me he thought it was from the medicine. I got off the drug quickly and those symptoms went away. I know one other person who reacted like that. I think going slow is your best option, then you can really tell if there is some kind of negative reaction. So far so good...hopefully you can have an up in the dose soon. I hope you get great benefit from it like most people do. I wish you all the best. Keep in touch, and keep your journal. ginnie
Thanks for all ofthe advice. I am starting to understand this drug more and know it needs to be respected. I split my 900 mg into three doses per day. I still think it is working. Pain and burning sensations are down. I think my muscle fasciculations are decreasing also. I don't seem to be as bummed out since my pain is better. I wonder if Gabapentin can melt snow in orthern Wisconsin
