I had a ruptured disc L4/L5, and the pain was unbearable as I waited for surgery. For about 40 days immediately prior to surgery, I took 300mg/3x daily, and it eliminated about 95% of the pain. Very helpful in that limited period.
“[Gabapentin] I took 300mg/3x daily, and it eliminated about 95% of the pain.”

Same here—20 years—but treating the constant tingling in my legs. (Peripheral Neuropathy). Those leg symptoms changed to “Restless Leg Syndrome”, where Gabapentin continued as still effective.
In later years, the tingling has essentially moved (centralized) to my trunk/core which is not relieved by the Gabapentin4th. (So I’ve removed myself off the med).
What was the question again?
