anxiety and Neurontin issue

[aheart]

Has anyone else with anxiety issues had a bad experience trying to take Neurontin ??

My doctor prescribed it for my neuropathy, I remember trying to take it in the past and having trouble but I thought I'd try again for him. I also take Tramodol for pain but doc cut me way back on that, thus my problem. I have Hep c, cirrosis, heart disease, diabetes, CAD< PAD, neuropathy, and I suspect either fibro or arthitis, I still go to work everyday so I need to be alert. My tramodol was working just fine for ten years but then got a doc who wanted to mess with things! I also take ..025 of zanax twice a day.

I take neurotin because i also have RSDS which is a nerve disorder. I also have to take pain meds, stomach pills and a nerve pill because of my panic attacks.

So, I do not think neurotin helps with panic attacks, well not for me.

What are you experiencing with neurontin?  What is your condition?
Neurontin if for epilepsy and nerve pain were you prescribed it for anxiety?
If so another drug may be more helpful.

neurontin was very helpful to me, but I became tolerant to it very quickly so now my pdoc is getting ready to wean me off of it

I got off it immediatley and switched to kolonipin
which works well for me
