I like the idea of neurontin as it treats nerve pain if it turns out I did need something. It helps with sleep? Or do you have to take during day to get all benefits?

Nardil has dropped my blood pressure by about 20-30 points so that should more than compensate for any increase due to weight gain. If anything I'm having problems with hypotension.
