Ok - I'll wade in some more on Neurontin. Like Ken, I find that it is the
best thing for me for the pain. I am at relatively high dosages - 3200 mg a
day. I find my memory is not what it used to be - mainly I lose words
occasionally. However - I am not sure that I want to blame Neurontin for
the memory problems - could be stress, could be age, could be the myelitis.
It can't be affecting me that much - what I do for work is very technical.
I just got a great review and it looks like I will be promoted soon. I
doubt I would still be working without the neurontin. Everyone has to make
their own decisions, but it has definitely made my life better - Ann
