Holy cow. I didn't know people could have such bad effects from Neurontin. I'm sorry to hear that you folks have had such a hard time. I personally liked it. It soothed raw, ragged nerves and overstimulation with minimal side effects. I took between 300 and 900 mg. When I stopped it, I slid right off it very easily in a couple of weeks or so. I stopped it on the advice of a hematologist because my white blood cell count dropped a little below the lab's reference range. She thought neurontin was the culprit because it is known to do that sometimes. But my WBC has stayed a little bit low, so I suspect it's probably the Lamictal. Since my WBC is stable and the differential has been normal, we've seen no need to stop Lamictal.
