I tried Lyrica about 18 months ago, it worked the same for me as neurontin, but I gained 30 lbs of flabby weight, the wrong kind! I had to make the switch back to neurontin and live with the burn as I can't titre up on the dose, it gives me horrible brain fog. I hope it works for you, takes a while to come up with the right "cocktail" of drugs to get relief.
