Hi there,
I tried Gabapentin to start with, it was no use at all, gave me some really funny sensations on my skin.
My neurologist suggested i try Lyrica, which i started on Boxing day. I started on a very low dose of 25mg am and 25mg pm. i am now on 50mg am and 5opm. I am finding i am getting very good relief from it. It is either that or i am feeling better and things are getting better. I haven't missed a dose so not sure if i am actually getting better. i have a much better quality of life now and feeling alot better in myself too. Hope this is helpful and hope you too can get some better relief.
