I Have Had Fibromyalgia For 18 Years And Have Recently

I have had fibromyalgia for 18 years and have recently developed severe neuropathic, burning pain. A flare-up occurred after I broke my right arm and spent 8 weeks in a sling.

My doctor prescribed neurontin, 300 mg., three times a day. The burning is still severe, and I think I need a higher dose. Do you think taking a higher dose might help decrease the burning pain?
