Hi Pebbs! Sorry you are having such a time of it. I took Lyrica for a little while, but it made me feel "loopy" for lack of a better term, however, I didn't notice weight gain at all. My DD started Topamax about 6 wks ago for severe migraines. She is having alot of side effects from the Topamax such as weight loss and stomach problems.

I wasn't aware it was RX'd for Fibro, as I have Fibro myself. I know several people who take Lyrica and swear by it, so guess I would say maybe you should at least "try it". Good luck and I'm glad you found us.
