Default Fibromyalgia

Hi......I am a nurse and also had fibromyalgia. I went to a Neurologist and was treated. I took 300mg of Neuontin every night. On day #12 of taking the drug, it kicked in and I was virtually pain free!!! This drug is primarily used for seizures but it was found to work for fibromyalgia. I took it for a year then stopped and the fibromyalgia was gone! I might add, too, that I did not take any other pain medication durinhg that time. I would go to a Neurologist. Hope she has good luck like I did!
