Default Lyrica

After all my testing was done and got the results from my neuro, turns out Im still having sz's. Frontal lobe sz's in my sleep and when Im awake I tend to stare off for no reason, found out that's a sz! Well, Im also having tons of pain so Im taking more of my other meds to help combat it, but neuro tells me well, I'll put you on Lyrica for sz's and the pain. I've heard good things about that. I was thinking YOU'VE heard good things, has he never rx this to any of his other MS pts? Or am I just his guinea pig? All the meds Im on now I've been on since 2012 and this neuro is very resistant to me getting the baclofen pump. Any body else take lyrica? If so, why and does it help? Any side effects I should be looking for?
