Default New PN sufferer - is Gabapentin safe or not?

Recently been diagnosed with:

Motor and Sensory Axonal Polyneuropathy.

Recently upped the dosage from 600 mg to 1200 mg and had these side-effects:

1. In my eyes. They are a little blurred and twitch a bit
2. My balance is off
3. Lethargic

Worried about what is happening to me
Urgent action needed now.

Action Plan:

1. Stop drinking alcohol. A common Cause of nerve damage. I have been a heavy drinker for many years.
2. Cut down on sugar usage.
3. Start taking Vit. B12 supplement. (Jarrows Methyl B-12 5000)
4. Start using Thiamine/Benfotiamine.
5. Change my mind set from depressive to positive with a need to step up and accept things more for what they are and how they are.

Any tips from anyone would be appreciated. At a new low right now.
