Yes it use to work. I take 300 mg in the morning and 400 mg at night before bed.

That sounds painful! How long have you been taking the gabapentin?

I have constant "burning" sensation in my fingertips, sometimes worse than others. I like the frostbit analogy. It was better until I started taking capecitabine 500 mg twice a day.

Well thats nerve pain right? It just happens once in awhile, little burning stinging sensations. They only last a few seconds so I am not really bothered by them. Before Gabapentin they were severe and were non-stop.

Do you think that you are feeling zingers which are very short spurts of breast pain that last a second or two?
