I was put on Gabapentin 900mg daily but I have found the tide effects to much. I am so tired all the time and my Tachycardia has become worse to. What should I be taking to help with all my pains. I also have had 5 operations on my knees and the pain is so bad.

My mother finds Biofreeze and Voltaren Cream helpful for her knee pain, also Voltaren pills, or Tramadolor when it is really bad.

I take a much higher dose of 1200mg three times a day and don’t have any side effects at all. It’s all about finding what works for you personally and takes time to get it right as it’s purely trial and error. There are other meds you can try, if you haven’t already gone down that route so I wish you good luck and hope you get sorted soon.

I find Biofreeze spray to work best out of those solutions. But when it’s real bad nothing helps. I curl up in my bed and just cry at its worst😥

I am on lyrica for about 6 weeks now. It is helping a lot, but still having fatigue, some pains off and on, odor sensitivity, and brain fog. I have voltarin gel. It helps some pain issues sometimes, but not always and has minimal effect.

Gaba is only for nerve pain so it doesn't help other pain sources. Try turmeric and black pepper mix every day, works wonders. Google for info.
