Re: NEURONTIN 600mg

All I know about this drug is that my son who is in his 30's had spinal surgery for stenosis. He was given Neurontin in the hospital and put on it when he came home. Three days after he was home he suffered a big seizure - wife was at work, kids at school and he estimates that he was "out" for about 2 hours when they found him - which was at 5ish - last he remembered was trying to get up from taking a nap around 3PM. When they came home they found him on floor, blood all over the place - he apparently had hit his head on floor and kept trying to get up and falling down again. He was NOT conscious - his wife called ambulance - the kids were terrified - ambulance came and took him to local hospital where they could NOT bring him around - they shipped him back to Mass general where surgery had taken place. They finally brought him to a conscious state after he was there about an hour - by now it was 7PM - he had been "out" since around 3 PM according to his estimate. I flew up to Boston on the last shuttle out of LaGuardia and when I got there at 11PM he was still talking gibberish. Finally by the morning he was OK - and we took him home - but he was taken off the Neurontin. Apparently this stuff which is given to PREVENT seizures can have a contradictory effect in some people. After seeing all of this I would NOT go near Neurontin!!!!!!!!
