Hi D.

I was on neurontin for over a year. 2400 mg per day. It did seem to help; however, for me it affected my short-term memory so bad that I weaned myself off. I would become violent in my sleep and could not remember the simplest of things. (I would rent a movie, watch it and rent it again two weeks later. No memory of it.) It worried me so that I would just not talk with my husband or children for fear of repeating myself. I think I am a rare case, and I do know that it works very well for most people. It's worth a try if it gives you some relief. I've also heard that Lyrica works well, but also with alot of side-effects. Good luck and welcome here. You will find many, many caring and compassionate people here. I have learned more here than from all of my doctors combined.

Kim
