I have TN, and they gave me Gabapentin...it has caused me to gain weight quickly...has anyone else experienced this issue?

I had heard that taking prednisone helps tremendously...anyone use that treatment...

I can not get the surgery until I have "tried all other options" but I am willing to do whatever it takes to get there.
