    Hi just joined here and was wondering if you have had help by using Gabapentin for the symptoms of nerve tingling and burning as well as muscle weakness in arms and legs after getting up from sitting?
    I am working with somatic tracking and meditation by Dr. Shubiner as well. Thank you for your reply

    I tried gabapentin once. It did stop nerve pain but I had side effects from a fairly low dose, so I stopped taking it.

    It’s been a few years. As I remember, I decided that the nerve sensitivity was better than drug side effects. I think that discounting the symptoms, as in “I don’t care if they are there anymore” helped to reduce them.
