Maybe ask if there are other anti-seizure meds besides Lyrica that s/he can recommend if you react poorly to the Lyrica.
I have been on Neurontin (anti-seizure med) since 2004, and they tried to switch me to Lyrica at one point. But I reacted really really badly to the Lyrica, so back to the Neurontin it was. There wasn't anything wrong with the Neurontin at the time and in the first place, but the neurologist said that Lyrica was "newer" and would be better. Well, like hell it was!
HTH!
