i am so sorry you are having a hard time. i do know how you feel somedays i just think this is so unfair mainly because my kids are so young and i cant do for them what i used to. like others have said talk to your dr tell them you want off the lyrica, i went on for a month and gaind 12 pounds and felt that it wasnt working and had a hard time dealing with the weight gain so i went back on topamax that is what works for me but it does come with its side effects. have you thought about your ms causing your joint pain and stiffness? i do know that rsd will make you stiff and ache but maybe having the ms along with it is a part of it being so bad. many prayers are with you take care, michelle
