(((Deb))) Sorry you've joined this club!

Say, I noticed in your siggy that you are working on weight loss. As doc said, one of the more common side effects with Lyrica is weight gain -- just so you are aware.

One thing I do know is be prepared when you have a very active time. Such as if you mow the lawn, or garden, or just doing whatever that is strenuous. You almost have to count on dealing with your activity the next day!

A big thing about fibro that really bothers me is the sleep problem. I haven't been able to sleep without an aid for years. At present I use Trazadone which works pretty well. Also has the added benefit of working along with my other antidepressant.

Big gentle hugs.
