Before the Lyrica, with PT and KT tape and NSAIDs, my pain had reduced from the severe burning and hypersensativity to a more dull ache and only minor hypersensitivity. But now the burning and the feelings of ripping/slicing pain when fabric touches it are back . I'm trying to figure out why this flare is happening.

I did drive a lot more than usual this week, and it's been raining out too, but it is also coinciding with the Lyrica pretty solidly.

So has anyone else had this happen while starting Lyrica?

I've tried lyrica 3-4 separate times over 8 months and each time it made my symptoms worse. I have crps II affecting my legs and i feel a constant vibration running down each leg. When i tried lyrica it seemed like the vibrations would be stronger and my muscles twitched more. Extremely jumpy and lots more electrical zingers. I threw it out. Maybe your doctor can give you something else to try. Best of luck to you.
