Gabapentin for Arthritis

So Joel's doctor is talking about putting him on gabapentin to help with the arthritis he has in his hands and shoulders. Has anyone taken it for this, does it help. I've read it can some crazy side effects.

I was on it for nerve pain before my neck surgery.

Not a fan, I called it my “stupid pills” as it seemed to take me 3-4x longer to accomplish tasks. Stopped the medication after about 6-7 weeks.

@Keeper he'd be on a low dose 1 or 2 pills 100 milagrams at night.
