At my neorologist appointment yesterday I was placed on Gabapentin for the pain in my legs. I have only taken two pills, but am hoping it will help! Anyone have any luck with this medication? We discussed constant fatique but she said they dont like to treat that with meds in less it is absolutely neccessary. I dont know, I guess I will just have to keep dealing with that one. Somedays are better then others and I just pray that it gets better over time. It just stinks to be SO tired. Im sure you all know the feeling! I had posted about the welts I was getting from my Copaxone injections. She said this is not a allergic reaction and I can still take the medication and that this is pretty common. She suggested taking Benadryl. I am not icing the site afterwards anymore and that seems to help keep the swelling down. I guess that keeps the med from being localized to that area. So I have a little more info and advice then before my appontment so that always makes you feel good. Best wishes all. KarenSmile
