I've been dealing with chest pain for a while now, and it sometimes comes with back pain as well. I've seen a few doctors, including an orthopedic, a cardiologist, and a general doctor, but each time they said there's no problem and just gave me painkillers. The pain still hasn't completely gone away. I recently visited a rheumatologist, and they suggested I take Gabapin NT for a month. Is this medication safe to use? I've also read online that it might cause weight gain. Could that be true? I'm a bit worried and would appreciate any advice.
