Trip to the doctors

The doctor put me on Gabapentin Yay at last! I have done some research on wikipedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabapentin (In 2002, an indication was added for treating postherpetic neuralgia (neuropathic pain following shingles, other painful neuropathies, and nerve related pain).[4]

has been found to be effective in prevention of frequent migraine headaches,[5] neuropathic pain[6]) so it looks like as well as helping my muscle pain it may well help my migraines which i didnt realise which is really good!! of course there is a possiblity it may not work at all as every drug does not work with every person but i can be hopeful, If i could cross my fingers i would!! I will be on a relatively high dosage of 900mg which will start at 300mg and go up over 3weeks, the only slightly annoying thing is that i will have to take 1 tablet 3 times a day.

Also my doctor agreed to write a letter to our housing officer re the marking of a disabled parking space which is really good and she signed the free prescription letter the FP92A meaning i no longer have to pay for my prescriptions for the mean time.

So all in all it was a very good doctors visit.
