WC,

I am thinking of you and also wanted to say that you are not a loser, far from it. Maybe after awhile your body will adjust to the gabapentin.

That's a pretty high dose so it not too surprising it would cause drowsiness through the day even though you only take it at night.

My sleep has been disturbed recently by my son wanting rides at night from the train station. Last night, a male knocked on my car door and started shouting at me whilst i was waiting for my son to walk from the train to the car. It got my adrenaline going and made it hard to fall asleep. It is the 3rd time it has happened whilst I was waiting to pick up my son. Now I just remember to lock the door once i park there. I don't like to leave the car running the whole time and the car doors unlock once you switch the engine off...

It could be that part of the drowsiness is due to not getting enough sleep for a long time and you will recover some energy once you get more solid nights of sleep.

I am living in a state of chronic fatigue so I have a lot of sympathy for your situation.

Take care,
