I felt horrible on both Lyrica and Neurontin, but I generally I thought Lyrica was worse. I am now taking Topamax (I suffer from head pain more than anything else), and depression is a major problem for me. I don't know if it's the meds or the pain or the RSD or a combo of all three that's causing the depression. Hard to tell. In general I think the meds are taking a toll and I'd like to toss them all and get back to my normal self....

Good luck, Sandy

And then. . . I have this same problem since I started Lyrica, but I am newly diagnosed so, don't know if it is the effect on the limbic system or the Lyrica.

And also. . . have this same problem since I started Lyrica, but I am newly diagnosed so, don't know if it is the effect on the limbic system or the Lyrica.

Oh. . .did I tell you that ever since I started on Lyrica, my memory has gone to hell in a handbasket!

I am newly diagnosed so, don't know if it is the effect on the limbic system or the Lyrica.

LOL sorry to be a smart-***! we all need laughter to get through. But seriously, I am considering switching from Lyrica to neurontin. Does anyone know if they have the same side effects?

Gentle hugs to all,

Kelly
