Lyrica, wow, welcome to zombieville. I was so tired when taking this med. Hard to say if it really even helped, but from what I remember, I dont think so.

Flexeril, again this made me very tired. If the drugs Im taking are making me just zombie like, even if they help with my arm, I can't continue taking them because then whats the point you know?

I just take advil and/or tylenol now as needed.

Thanks
Hi... I just started in Lyrica 300 mg 4 days ago, im taking it before I go to bed....and still taking the neurontin 1400 mg during the day.... we are shooting for a 1 month to be just on Lyrica. I found that in the morning when I get up im super dizzy today it lasted from 530 am to about 1..... It scares me, as I HAVE to drive the kids to school... hope this will pass???? or it wont work for me, I hope it does not have the zombie effect on me, as I will not be able to take, I have to much to do on the days I feel better than shitty.

Hope all is well
