Battling this fatigue, I tried to stop taking Gabapentin. I haven’t had it for 4-5 days now. (Also neuro suggested this.) While I can’t tell a difference at all with the exhaustion, I didn’t realize how much that med helped me!!!
My upper right thigh has burned since the beginning of my wonky little MS journey. However, now both legs burn and hurt (right definitely more than left)! And my legs are actually putting off heat. It’s crazy— like when my kiddos were babies and had a fever, and I could just put my hand near their little heads and feel the heat. Just like that.
Added to all this, our A/C has gone out in our house! Ceiling fans are helping and it isn’t unbearable yet.... I know the heat can’t be helping things.
Do I restart Gabapentin just like I started it, titrating the dose for days until I gradually get back to 3 per day?
Anyone else feel like they’ve got fire-limbs?
