Went up to 600 am 300noon and 600pm with gabapentin soon all three will be 600 and I have .5 of klonopin three times a day but I still have this residual burning and can’t feel attacks but the are dulled. Should I give meds more time or ask for an increase next week when I go to my pain clinic. I feel a difference with the severity of the pain but I think it may not be enough. What doses have helped you all.
Gabapentin has always worked for me. My neuro always just bumped me up 100 mg a day for several days (I would go at least a week between increases of 100 mg). But....200 mg/day worked for me for a year. Now up to 700 heading to 900/day Everyone's experience is different, so there is no standard. Is the klonopin helping? My understanding is to gradually increase gabapentin until it is effective, titrating up slowly to minimize side effects. Hope you get relief soon.
