A common side effect of gabapentin is restless leg syndrome. This is a rare side effect that happens when gabapentin is taken for a long period of time. While restless leg syndrome is not a disease, it does cause some side effects. This is one of those side effects that is extremely rare and usually comes and goes. People with this syndrome are usually on gabapentin for months or even years.
When I was first prescribed gabapentin, my doctor wrote me a letter telling me that I shouldn’t take it more than a few weeks. As it turns out, I had this side effect only a few weeks. It was a side effect that took weeks to come and go.
In many cases gabapentin is very helpful, but in certain cases it can be harmful. The most common side effects of gabapentin are dry mouth, blurred vision, and cognitive impairment. People who are on gabapentin for a long period of time may also experience depression, anxiety, irritability, and insomnia.
I have been on gabapentin for about a year and a half. I have been on it for six months, and I have noticed some cognitive impairment and a decline in my vision. I have had to re-evaluate my life to see if I can still do things I used to do, and I have had to take it slowly since I started taking it. The side effects have stopped for me so far, and I can still do things I used to do.
As a result of all this, I have noticed a decline in my ability to drive, which I used to enjoy. I find I can’t do as many things I used to do when I was driving. I can’t read maps, I can no longer be in the middle of a conversation, and I can’t do as many tasks I used to do. I can’t drive without gabapentin, so I have to drive more carefully.
This is very much the same story. I was driving in the car yesterday as I was getting ready for work. I was trying to get the car going. I felt like I was going too fast. I looked down and noticed my foot was asleep. I pulled over to the side of the road and just sat there. For a few seconds I just stood there. Then I realized I was just sitting there. I looked down at my foot and realized it was restless.
In case you didn’t know, restless leg syndrome is a pretty common health condition that affects about 2% of the population in the United States. According to the National Institutes of Health, the condition runs in an all-too-common family of disorders called neurocutaneous conditions. It’s characterized by a sudden and extreme increase in the number of muscle spasms that occur, typically starting in the foot, ankle, lower leg, or knee.
The problem is, sometimes, the spasms don’t stop and the muscles actually hurt, which is what we refer to as “restless leg syndrome.” This condition is usually caused by injury or a serious disease, but it can be caused by anything from stress to inflammation. Like most of us, I don’t feel like being up all night with restless leg syndrome, so I just don’t have the energy to be a chronic sufferer.
Well, that’s all great, but my friend and colleague David Kinsley says, “This is not the first time the human body has been forced to make a difficult decision.” He adds that “relaxing the muscles to make them work harder” is one of the most common examples of this. The muscle spasms you’d expect from stress are not as common as you’d think.
The difference between when someone is relaxed and when they are tense is the muscle fibers. It is this spasm that occurs when we are stressed and is something that is easily caused by stress. In a muscle relaxation study, the stress caused the muscle fibers to contract. Once the muscle fibers are relaxed, they relax. For instance, a muscle that is relaxed and then tensed is like a balloon that is deflated, and then it is hard to breath.
