Hey Mom!!

One of the side effects of Lyrica is Dizziness....

I too had the same problems you are describing...but after the Lyrica had been in my system for a while the side effects eased up.

I've always had low blood pressure... 85/55 but it's been all over the place since being diagnosed with RSD. Also my heart rate has went from a normal resting rate of 60 pre-rsd to 80+ now.


Here is a link to Lyrica Patient Information:
http://www.pfizer.com/files/products/ppi_lyrica.pdf

The most common side effects of LYRICA are:
dizziness

blurry vision

weight gain

sleepiness

trouble concentrating

swelling of hands and feet

dry mouth

I hope this helps you....
