Hi Sheena,

I have Spina Biffada Occulta at L7. This has caused the disks above and below L7 to crack and rupture. I'm not a surgical candidate at this stage, PCP flat out said I'm going to have to live with back pain. He wanted to try Neurontin as others have reported relief from chronic pain. He also felt that since it has a potentate effect on pain killers it is also a tool to deal with tolerance.

When I first started taking it the side effects I noticed most were lethargy and muscle weakness. Over time those seemed to lessen. I swim Masters and I will stop taking it 10 days before I do a meet and I do feel stronger those times. Could be mental, could be physical.

While I said before it's not a cure-all for my pain but it does help me sleep and that sure has an effect on how I feel even with pain.

I would give it a try, and not just for a few days, like I said I didn't notice any benefit until about 6 weeks into it.

Hope this helps,
Oceans
