Call your dr and let them know you are not comfortable taking this. Yes tell them you want neurontin which is same as gabapentin. Its the least to cause issues with any other meds. Be strong and dont let drs office push you around. This is your health!!

My sweet friend....please please please do not take this. It is way to dangerouse and only normally given to patients when they are dying to control pain. Ask if she can give you something like Neurotin, and maybe like lortab for breakthrough pain. It is a narcotic butmuch safer and I agree with selma I am wondering ifit could be a leak or ICP as well. PLease dont taket this, my bff(best forum friend ) !!!!!
