Good luck recovering from your wrist surgery. I had surgery on the base of my big thumb in August so can sympathize with you.

I forgot to say how much of each med that I take. I take everything at night.
Gabapentin 1800 mg
Tramadol 100 mg
Tizanidine 2 mg
TCH gummies
As long as I watch my food I don't gain weight. I log my food on the app Lose It.
No depression.

How are you taking your gabapentin? You should be taking 600 mg 1 to 2 hours before bed, than 600 mg 4 hours before, then 600 mg 6 hours before since taking more than 600 mg is not well absorbed.
