I took Neurontin for 3 weeks (for facial pain) and got up to 900mg per day. Then I got sick and was diagnosed with Colitis so I stopped for 3 weeks. I'm back on it at 1200mg per day for the last 2 weeks. I don't feel any better at all. In fact, I'm in a bad phase right now (which is not unusual - my pain fluctuates). My neurologist told me to stay on 1200mg for 4 weeks and then come see him. I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience in determining when it simply isn't going to work. I don't really want to keep upping the dosage if it's not going to make any difference. Personally, I think I should have felt some improvement by now. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
