Default gapabentin increase and sexual side effects?

I was on gabapentin at 900mg for 2 or 3 months maybe and while it wasn't really doing anything for me I expected an increase at my next appointment with my PM. Since my neuro had originally prescribed it, she told me to increase it and we doubled. That was 2 weeks ago and I just hit 1800 this Thursday.

Here's the problem (and some people may not be interested because the topic is sex, but I'm putting this here specifically because of the number of us who use this drug), I can't orgasm anymore. I ended up curled up in my husband's arms last night sobbing like a child. I haven't had issues before so I can't imagine what else could possible be causing the problem. Is this something that is common or that anyone else has had? If it wasn't Saturday I'd be on the phone to my doctor. I have an appointment Thursday but if they have an opening earlier in the week I'll go. I'm so frustrated and angry that I'm on the verge of flushing my bottle of pills. I can't live like this. I can do all my medical problems, but I can't do this. I don't know what to do.
