Suggest Treatment For Fibromyalgia
Hi! I just got some ear peircings and I regularly take apo-gabapentin for diagnosed fibromyalgia. I have not taken one in a bit since I did not want to feel faint for my peircing session however I am wondering if the medication thins my blood at all as it could cause some issues with my peircings.

Hi,
Don't worry Gabapentin won't interfere with your clotting mechanism. You may take ear piercing but careful that it won't infected or condritis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
