    I started taking gabapentin a couple of weeks ago and I have gotten a rash all over my body. The doctor doesn’t know if it is from the gabapentin or from the MDS. I took the gabapentin for pain and mostly because I have Such bad night sweats and day sweats because of heat intolerance which is so horrible to live with. I noticed right from the beginning when I took it it seemed to help especially with the sweating, but then I broke out in a rash and I am praying that it is something else and not the Neurontin. I am wondering if anybody else has taken the Neurontin or gabapentin and what their experience has been with it.

    I have taken Gabapentin without side effects for a long time. More fatigue is the only side effect, but it has lessened some of the pain I had been experiencing.
