I just started on Neurontin for fibromyalgia. (100 mg at night) The second time.

I started a couple of weeks ago and awakened with a little over 200, which is nearly unknown in the past four months I have had my pump. It turned out to be one of those days when I corrected all day and only caught up at dinner time. I had the same problem the next day. The third morning, same thing-- but it was set change day and I noticed the set had seemed slightly leaky. The lightbulb went on and I attributed my high bg to a bad set. Meanwhile, I had stopped the Neurontin thinking it may have caused my sugar to jump. Of course, this happened the weekend my endo was out of town.

Sooo, I just started Neurontin again last night. This morning I was 202.

Is anyone taking Neurontin and if so, do you notice a blood sugar rise?

I don't use it any longer but I have taken it in the past. I never had any problem with it that I'm aware of. Of course, it could be possible that it made my blood sugar run higher and I adjusted for it but I don't recall dropping my insulin dose when I stopped taking it. I used it for the nerve damage (neuropathy) but it didn't help any.

I'm on a pretty high dose and don't find any difference in my sugars at all.
