If you can’t get “the only thing that worked,” then you need a new doctor. It’s irresponsible and borderline malpractice to take someone off a medication that works simply because it’s “old” or “not recommended,” unless the reason it’s no longer recommended is because of previously unknown side effects. It sounds like you found what you need in gabapentin, so I’m glad for that, but I would have gotten a new doctor in your situation instead.
