Thanks for the feeback Jim...

When they rushed me to the doctor my blood pressure was good (actually on the low range of normal). Never have had a problem with Blood Pressure in the past. Heart rate was high but EKG look good. The only thing that came back out of whack on my labs was my cholesterol - good and bad cholesterol were high but they are blaming that on Lyrica and the rapid weight gain (40lbs) in 12mths. Doctor didn't seem to worried about it cause I went from 105 to 142 lbs and my eating habits don't justify the weight gain. Lyrica has proven weight gain side effects of average 30lbs according to my doctor and the FDA. I am just watching what I eat to help lower my cholesterol.

I just don't know except to blame it on RSD!
