Gabapentin for Erythromelalgia Reviews

"The worst punishment drug, I have ever been given. Went up to 2800 MG day. It was useless, not only useless for Erythromelalgia (EM), but is damaging and insulting Avoiding any Dr who even mentions it is wise"


"Did nothing for pain. Unfortunately had to go on strong opiate medication. Wish I had another option."


"It was useless, so I was given more and more and more of it until I felt like a zombie. The idea it does anything for the pain caused by EM is a delusional mistake."


"It works pretty well for me, but it seems less so as time goes on. Bare feet on cold floors, elevating feet helps most."


"Gabapentin has been helpful in reducing the intensity of my burning flares."
