Hi
Dooley has recently been diagnosed with SM (beginning of Aug) and has been put on 300mg of Gabapentin (split into 100mg doses 3x a day) and it seems like the meds are finally kicking in!
The neuro specialist said that he wanted Dooley back to 95% of what he was like before he started showing symptoms and after being on the gabapentin for just over 2 weeks, I would say that Dooley is pretty much back like his old self :jump:
What I was wondering was, is this good spell likely to continue? Or should I expect Dooley still to have bad days on the meds? I hate seeing him when the SM takes over & when he is in pain, it's so heartbreaking I guess I'm just hoping that people with experience can give me some advice I know that having to live with SM is a long journey... for Dooley as well as me!!
Thank you :lotsaluv:
