Gabapentin for hot flashes
Has any one tried Gabapentin for hot flashes and would like to share the good, the bad and the ugly about it. I'm still struggling with very frequent, intense, flashes. I tried Effexor, no help and pine tree bark, with negligible change.
This is the next treatment recommend by my doc. I'm only 18 months into 5 years of Tamoxifen so I have a long road ahead and would love some relief.
Thanks,
Elizabeth
