I agree with notifying your doctor prior to stopping. There are other drugs that can be used for neurological pain. You may need a higher dose of Gabapentin.
Its one of those drugs that can be increased to effective levels.
Its not addicting but needs to be tapered to avoid side effects.
I like Cymbalta.
Good luck
