A couple of weeks ago I went from 900mg of gabapentin for pain relief down to 600mg. Withdrawl was less than nothing and I’ve been exercising hard each day including press ups which considering the cancer in my spine I shouldn’t be able to do at all. So as of today I’m dropping it down to 300mg…if I handle that well for the next two weeks with no pain still then I’m dropping all pain meds altogether. I see absolutely no point in taking them when I no longer have any pain just in case I do. If I did have pain obviously would reassess but I am back to being able to move with no discomfort at all and even able to lift pots around the garden which a couple of months ago I had to ask gareth to do. Am really pleased with the result now.
