Have any of you taken Gabapentin for fibromyalgia and has it helped? I just started taking it a little over a week ago and it seems to be helping some. I have fibromyalgia and degenerative disc disease, thoracic spondylosis and space narrowing. Been feeling desperate so I’m hoping this will be at least some help although it does make me feel a little out of it as well.
Gabapentin for fibromyalgia?

Yes definitely! I have both psoriatic arthritis & fibromyalgia. Gabapentin is probably the most effective thing I've taken besides meloxicam. Schedule it because it really doesn't cut it after you're already flaming up in neuropathic pain.
