Default Drugs. OMG

When it comes to drugs, I'm a Newbie. My PCP insisted I have Baclophen (Sp ?) in the house, just in case I need it, have never used it. My MS Neurologist at Johns Hopkins has prescribed Gabapentin and Hydroco/Aceam for use at night night,lying down I get joint pain/muscle pain in my shoulder, arm, elbow/hand. Seems very neurological how it acts. Took the Hydro/|Acetam (generic Vicidin) @ hour before bed. Pain was there, could feel some throb, but the edge was off, I was so tired (drug), slept through it all night, woke up ok. Did that 3 nights, Last night took 1/2 the 600mg tab of Gabapentin (Neurotin?) Slept, but this morning I'm loopy, shadow of a headache popping round my head, almost double vision. Do I have a drug hang-over? I've never done liquor well and when the gave me valium as they did everyone before Laser surgery to relax you, well fine for that big guy, but same amount for 110 lb me made me zonk right out. They had to use a thing to prop my eyes open for the surgery I'm told. I didn't feel a thing, sleeping rag-doll I was. DH was there, helped hoist me onto operating table, said nurses said they never had such a good patient (Ha, ha?) The way I feel, I never want Gaba. again. Should I try less? Vicidin was OK. Will I become a House?
