[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 443495, member: 6705"] husband is on gabapentin (and honestly, he's a difficult child too, of the easy child/difficult child variety). He's been on it a LONG time though, as a nerve blocker for the testicular neuroma. Seems to be the only thing that actually works for that. My Grandma was on it for a very short time, for a similar reason, near the end of her life - she had pancreatic cancer - and Grandma was [I]definitely[/I] a difficult child! No effects that I know of, but she was on a molotov-cocktail of medications. Your mentioning the sedating effects makes me wonder, though. Left to himself, husband will sleep for hours and hours. He genuinely does not mean to... I will ask a few others I know, off the board! ...And as a mood stabilizer? Well, if it has any effect in that direction for husband, I'm thankful - but I would not hold my breath, there. [/QUOTE]
