I was given Gabapentin, I don't know what was worse, the shingles or the medication.
Some of us don't get along so well with the Gaba. I was given it for something other than shingles and didn't like it much.

I used to take Gabapentin for back and nerve pain. Never had any side effects. However I did have a test indicating abnormal Kidney function, as soon as that happened my pain management doctor told me to quit taking it. I guess it's pretty hard on the Kidneys.
