Exclamation

Hi bevikins
I am sorry to hear you are suffering so.

Please note that it is both illegal and dangerous to try to obtain prescription drugs without a valid prescription from your physician and that we do not allow anyone to ask our members to assist them in this.
Apart from the legal implications, you should also be aware that it is well known that medications obtained online are frequently not what they claim to be and may contain toxic ingredients.

Your friend who gave you meds could also get into serious trouble for doing so.

I can't recommend using someone elses meds or buying them online. You do not know what or how your body will react and you need to make sure your dr.'s are aware. You should contact either your pcp, or your pm dr. to see what they can give you. Withdraw from a small amount of neurontin will not be that bad and i do not think you will have side effects.
Neurontin does not work for everyone, so your meds should definitley be followed closely by a physician, so that you can work together to find the best medications that will give you the greatest relief.
I can recommend that if you are not getting the medications you need you should consider switching dr.'s and if the pain does get any worse you should consider going to the ER.
