I Am Taking Gabapentin 900mg For A Nerve Injury. I

I am taking Gabapentin 900mg for a nerve injury. I have also been prescribed a low dose of lorazepam and 7.5 mg of zoplicone (immovane) for sleep. I do manage to sleep, but I feel clumsy and uncoordinated during the day. Plus, I'm not as sharp. I need something for the nerve pain, but I hear Lyrica has worse side effects. Any advice or other options you can recommend? I'm allergic to most pain meds, and antidepressants have not been effective for nerve pain. The only one I took years ago for sleep was ammitryptiline 10mg, any thoughts? Natural supplements? Thanks!
