Glad lowering it has helped. I understand what you mean by the what next lol I wish you continued good health. Best wishes, Sissie
thanks Sissie, Ive reduced the gabapentin and the itching skin has subsided. I didnt contact my doctor as I was hoping my MS nurse would have gotten back to me, unfortunatley she didnt. I just get a bit fed up always going to my doctor for one thing or another with this MS. Ive gone from 2 years ago only seeing my gp once a year if that, to now it seems like every month. My MS nurse is usually good at answering my quetions but this time I felt I could not wait. Thankfully itch had subsided and hopefully will be gone totally soon and pray the neuropathic pain stays away too. I just cant help but wonder 'what next'! Well Im so glad Im feeling better. Long may it continue. Hope you are well too - best wishes heather
I don't know about the itching but I do know about Gabapentin. It made me nutty lol. My dr put me on Gabitril for my nerve pain and it worked wonders with no side effects. I do know you should talk to your dr if you have not already about lowering your dose on your own. Medications like this are sometimes worse to take yourself off of and need to be monitored by a dr. Best of luck, Sissie
