shame that Gabapentin didn't help you, for me (spine surgery, couple of months before they opened me up, and now in recovery) it was a lifesaver when funnily enough the opiates seemed to make no difference (post surgery expecting pain to be higher for a while they switched me, when the Gabapentin ran out and I had a very uncomfortable night!). Was really glad, given all the scare talk about opiates, how easily I have been able to get off them - if you're seen me with a bag of chocolates, or when I don't get my coffee I'm pretty obviously a candidate for addiction :) I do find the Gabapentin given me the dizzy/drunk feeling, but I'm lucky enough that I can dose late evening and sleep through most of the side-effects and remain functional (with the occasional Tylenol) during the day
