I recently started taking Amitriptyline 10 mg and plan to increase it once I am weaned off Cymbalta. I find it very helpful for sleep, and apparently that is the most important thing to tackle with Fibro. I also take Tramadol. Gabapentin did not help me at all.

I have taken 9 300mg of gabapentin a day for over fifteen years. That's the max. I stopped taking it once because I couldn't FEEL anything that i could pinpoint that it was working. I couldn't believe how painful it was without them, so I am taking these to this day and have no plans to stop. Maybe EVER! Great stuff for Neuropathy as well.

I should add that I still wake up in pain everyday. The first 30 min or so is brutal! My legs and feet are so stiff and sore I can barely get down the stairs!!

I take 1000 mg before bed of Gabapentin and flexerall. I sleep well and and all night.

Wow AdrienneSue is that all with everything else I am taking about 20 pills a day it's a case of please don't shake me you will be deafened by the rattle. That has given me something to think about
