Default Lyrica

Hi,

Well just got back from the doctor today and increased my lyrica to 150 mg tid..... I guess 600 mg is the total daily dose you would want to take.(maximum I mean)... been reading the CPS again with my doctor. I go in there and tell her what I want to try and she prescribes it really quite funny but she's amazing. I took 150 mg this afternoon with lunch as well as 4mg of zanaflex. Boy was I flying. Have not felt like that for a while.... had no pain though......... I think I like lyrica much better than neurontoin. I've been on very high doses of neurontoin as well, but that was before my surgery...... everybody reacts so differently to medication it is all trial and error unfortunately........ I have seen so much of this is a nurse one drug works well for one person and not for another.

Hope this insight helps,

Victoria
