Hi there glorybeeric and welcome. I heard that the two of these are "Twins" to one another. Well, wasn't so for me. I was first "offered" the Lyrica 75 mg. OMG 1 did me in!! knocked my butt out cold. slept for a day and a half. Now, my sister and my dad who is 75 Years "young" takes this same dose and does fine on it. I am on the neurontin 300 Mg. in the afternoon and my PD just now put me on 6oo mg. of the neurontin at It does not bother me. At first.. the first 3 days, I was a little groggy, but nothing like the lyrica. You may need a smaller dose maybe?? did the smaller does help your pain? Ok, why do you think Pain management Dr.'s are over rated? I have to disagree with you on this one. Why do you think your in control when you just mentioned above about the trouble your having with the neurontin? A lot of us here have a pain management Dr. You mentioned oxycodone. Well, if that helps you, take it. Why would you even say;"I am not a pill pusher"? I am sorry, I can't help much, only by telling you how my experience is with the two pills. some can take it(neurontin, Lyrica) some can't. wishing you the best! Love, Desi
