Hi all. I have been on Lyrica for about a month. Only gained about 5 lbs. I was taking 50mg 3x a day. However, last Thursday the Rheumatologist upped it to 75mg twice a day and a 50 once a day. I gained 7lbs in 4.5 days. My pain, etc has seemed to be getting worse with Lyrica not better. We discussed it today with the rheumy and he wants me to keep taking it. I hurt more and feel aweful. I've been having bladder control issues and my legs feel like they are constant on fire and my feet constantly cramp. He just would not listen. So I decided to go back to my family doctor and discuss other options. I am not taking the lyrica and won't be going back to that rhemy again. To top all of this off, he is now back peddling saying he doesn't think it is fibro, the bladder problem may be an infection and wants to sent me to a specialist, and to a foot doctor to address the feet cramping. I just want answers. My family doctor said he thought it was fibro and sent me to the rhemy for a second opinion. Some opinion. Thanks for listening.
