SHINGLES NERVE PAIN
Posted , 3 users are following.
I came down with the shingles on March 16, 2019. The rash has cleared but I am left the with this nerve pain for which I am taking Gabapentin capsules 3 times a day. I was hospitalized when I came down with the shingles and was given several tests to include my liver, gallbladder, etc. Well it turns out that my liver is cirrhosis due to a fatty liver and there is "sludge" in my gallbladder.
I have in the past taken milkthistle for my liver and it has healed it, but since I am on these Gabapentin capsules I do not know if it is okay to take milkthistle capsules while on Gabapentin. I don't have insurance so I don't have a doctor for guidance. Is there anyone on this forum that might be able to give some insight/guidance regarding this issue? I want to get off Gabapentin and get on milkthistle not only for my liver but that it might also cover this type of nerve pain.

I can't find anything on taking milk thistle and gabapentin. However, I would try to get insurance so you can get proper medical
guidance on this. I have nerve pain from injuries but i didn't find milk thistle made any difference. The only thing that really works for me is heat.
