Jim takes gaba Tammy. Don't go cold turkey or you could have seizures. That's the side effect of stopping too soon and Jim found out the hard way. He has swelling and weight gain too and his neuro said if we wanted to try to go down on them we could. She said to report back to her what we find. She up'd his dose last year and he's gained almost thirty pounds since then.

Stay tuned because it will be a long ride. I am weening Jim slowly, very slowly. I don't ever want to see him seize again.
