    Reviewed Neurontinon 9/11/2019Neurontin works full body, not just on select nerves or pain and this may cause side effects. Lots of scientific literature about the negative, long term side effects of Gabapentin.

    Reviewed gabapentinon 7/26/2019I had never experienced side effects that I knew of, when a Dr. suggested the swellings in my upper arms could be from gabapentin. They are abnormally large swellings in the bicep muscles. Anyone else have this side effect?

    Reviewed gabapentinon 5/6/2019Don't stop this suddenly. Don't take 'as needed'. I have a like/hate relationship with this drug. I like that it gives some relief for nerve pain, which is why I stay on it. I hate that it affects memory, the weight gain and the drowsiness of I don't eat enough. I am seriously considering stopping this med. When I do I will be sure to taper slowly to avoid any issues with withdrawal. I've had to once and it wasn't pretty. But at least I knew it would not be easy.

    Reviewed Neurontinon 5/4/2019I gained 30 lb in two months without any change in diet. I’d rather live housebound in pain than look and feel like this. The weight is all in the mid section. I want to kill myself
