I was on Lyrica 400mg after work until the pn "gremlins" started poking me all day long. Then, I didn't work and took it in divided doses during the day. I was given clonazepam to take at bedtime and prn during the day if the lyrica wasn't enough. I was sooooo out of it I couldn't remember! I would get confused during conversations, forget what I was talking about, word recall problems,...but due to the effect lyrica has on me (like smoking really good weed and drinking) and add the clonazepam and I really wasn't aware enough to care. I wore pens around my neck to write on my hand anything I wanted to remember for more than a milisecond. I didn't drive farther than the grocery store for 3 months. I made my UCLA professor of neurology grudgingly give me neurontin as a replacement. I began to like the lyrica so much that I have a friend holding the 400 100mg capsules I have left over. I hope I won't get used to the neurontin and need the lyrica again. It was no life for me.
