Hey there Tom.......

Since Lyrica is prescribed for fibromyalgia which I have along with the nerve pain of MS, I asked my GP about it and he would not give it to me. He said it had too many bad side effects and I have a sensitivity to meds like others have mentioned.

The low dose with a gradual increase sounds like a good idea to me. Those doctors who say "NO", don't have to live with this excrutiating pain like we do!! Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
