If you dont want to take the Lyrica, dont take the Lyrica.

My doctor gave me Baclofen, told me to take one pill twice a day.

I dont take it every day, probably once or twice every few weeks if I notice some nasty nasty spasticity...and I dont even take it full strength. I'll break it in half and either take the half, or I'll break the half in half and take 1/4 of a dose. (I dont like how it makes me sleepy all the time. I did try to take it as prescribed, and I ended up sleeping for two days in a row)

When I went back to see him, he asked how the Baclofen was working. I told him how I take it, and why. He said that it was there if ever felt the need to take it more often. He didnt seem disturbed that I dont take it as often as prescribed.


If you dont take it, and you go back to the doctor and he asks how the Lyrica worked, tell him the truth, you didnt fill the Rx, because you didnt feel like he listened to you when you saw him last.

Oh, and Lyrica is prescribed for Fibro, but it's got a few other usages (controlling epileptic seizures) I dont think it's just for Fibro tho...a lot of medications can be used for many different medical problems.
