Conversation: The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] Yes. I have been given gabapentin 300 mg to take for spinal stenosis nerve pain. I am 80 years old, allergic to Aspirin and only take Tylenol for my pain. I am very careful not to take too much. Sometimes go for weeks at a time with nothing for pain. Also have fibromyalgia and have it under control by pacing myself and not over or under doing anything physical. I do not want to start this medication but feel an attack coming on of pain that starts in low back. I don t like what I hear of side effects.
[|AI|]  Hi, I hope physiotherapy will help you out and it's an alternative form of treatment with the help of exercises and electron therapeutic machines which help in pain management. In the meantime I will suggest you to do cycling, active exercises of whole body, stretching do short walks. And I will also suggest you to sleep on hard bed, wear lumbar belt while travelling, travel light, don't lift any heavy weight, and refrain yourself from doing any overhead activity. Hope you will find the answer useful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
