JanK, I thank you so much for your answers!and to everyone who has posted too! after all the reading I am going to request that my Dr.does NOT put me on the Neruontin (unless he has some serious reasons)after my surgery I will be very IN-Active and blood clots are always a factor,I have had 3 back surgeries before so I am not a stranger to that!In response to The Vicodin I am taking,it does keep the pain under control as much as it can...I have so much going on in there that there is no pain med out there that can control it completly,I REFUSE to take Oxycontin or Ms Contin for it.I have a VERY good Physician and he monitors everything very carefully,I am not worried about him at all,God bless him,he has literally saved my life several times over!I will ask him next week at my appointment why he is leaning towards this med and go head to head with him...lol..thanks for the info!...I will post with the answer,in hopes to help someone with a similiar problem.~Nanc~
