I have other issues going on - lucky me - that require me to take nerve medicine. Well the medicines #1 side effect is dizziness and loss of coordination.

I'm already dizzy and have trouble walking! Plus the issue I'm having is making me dizzy. And now the medicine they're giving me (Gabapentin) is going to make me dizzy.

When can we catch a break, like seriously!! I'm so sick of being dizzy!! I can't take medicine for anxiety because it makes me dizzy. I can't take my medicine for my nerve issues because it makes me dizzy. What are people like us supposed to do???
