Gabapentine - Side Effects
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have tried so many medications but I had a sever reaction to Gabapentine. Basically I lost the ability to speak. Has anyone else had this and has there been any long term problems?

Gabapentine made me fibro so extremely bad. It made it feel as though my entire body would break if someone touched me. It made my hips hurt to the point where I barely walked. I was always in a bad mood and depressed because I was pretty much bed ridden.

I'm allergic to Gabapentin - renal toxicity. I give a boatload of it at work, and have to crush it because it is a policy at our facility. I have to wear a mask and gloves!

My pain with labor was much worse lol. Fibro is another pain entirely but it doesn't make life easy when trying to keep up and the meds and your own body are working against you. I still have a lot of pain, normal day is about a 5-6 and I'm on lyrica. But gabapentin was terrible
