Hi there I havnt posted here for a while (47 yr male)but I have the same symptoms as you and fought the meds for around 6 mths. To top it off I also have sleep apnea so sleep with a machine. Times there I was feeling so low I really felt like giving up, however I am now on full time meds inc LYRICA 300mg per day and every vitamin and have found that the burning pain was making me depressed so now I take and will take what ever dose is needed and feel way better. Get your pain under control first so you can think clearly about what to do next, good luck..
