> jeez, and my dr. has an MD in pharmacology.... i will have to check my blood pressure. about the neurontin, does it make you gain weight by increased appetite, or just by doing somehing to your system regardless if what you eat? that's the last side effect i need, used to weigh in the 120's, not i'd say in the 160s or 170. i just hate myself and my body, done little to corrent it, it really affects my self worth and i don't want to leave the house becasue i am such a cow. boyfried call me load ass, fat ass, wide load...i have to wear his shorts because nothing i have fits - is there a support thread for the weight proble??
>I hear ya Lori. Since my accident I turned into a flippin BLIMP. Dr. had me on Neurontin for 3 years and I turned into a football field. I eat like a BIRD, salad, no sugar, hardly any carbs, lots of water, you name it, nothing. So my NEW dr. gave me Topamax, took me off Neurontin and we'll see how it goes. Try this thread...
