Hey and welcome @Gypsielass1969, I take 600 mg of Gabapentin each night for restless leg syndrome and a side effect it seems to take care of most of my leg and feet pains too

You don’t get Gabapentin without discussing it with your doctor.

Hi Gypsielass1969, sorry to hear about the issues you're having with your leg.

Were you able to have a chat with your GP about your leg specifically?
