May I ask what dose of neurontin you are on and when you take it? When I was on it a number of years ago (it was a godsend to me then), I took some morning and night and I graduated up in dosage starting with 300mg's up to 1100 mg's. I believe (I could be wrong) that you can go up to 1800mg's. Some folks find it to be sedating, but I did not so I was able to take it in the morning okay. Point being, maybe you need to up your dosage? Of course you would have to talk with your prescribing physician. Titrating up or down needs to be done gradually.

I know that many times my pain level increases with bad weather. Have you noticed that for yourself at all? I keep an eye on the weather and when a cold front is coming through, I will be sure to use my prn's so I can try to stave off a really bad flare. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't. It's all a crap shoot

Other than that, I have to just work through it and complain LOL. My job is sometimes physical as well as the individual that I take care of is a fall risk and either I'm helping him stay upright or picking him up off the floor. Walking with him can be difficult at times and he does use a gait belt which helps but it's hard on my back as well. I can't quit the job so I mush on threw it.

I hope you are feeling better soon!
