>>Like you, I too have been prescribed neurontin for chronic pain. Been on it about 5 weeks and it has not brought any relief from the pain I suffer due to soft-tissue injury in my lower back , a bulging disc, all from an auto accident 2 years ago. I do feel light headed most of the time, and suffer occasional nausea as side-effects from the neurontin. If I continue to have no relief, I am quitting this stuff soon. Good luck!!
