Maybe you need to take the Lyrica a little longer, good luck. Do you have more migraine headaches or are they tension headaches?

I have been to a migraine specialist for my headaches. He too took me off of my Topamax, I was put on that initially for my seizures. So now he has me taking 480mg of Verapamil (old blood pressure med that is now used for headaches) and he told me to take this supplement called Migra-Eaze. You can find it on line. But since then and it has been probably 8-10 months, I have only had 2 major migraines in which was treated with Relpac. So that might be something you could ask your doc about.
Owen - I have been taking Lyrica for neurological pain, fibromyalgia and non epileptic seizures. It has been about 45 days and I feel good. It took about three weeks to feel the change, but it happened. Now if I can only get the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Seizures under control, I will be good to go.
Just wanted to share those thoughts with you two.
