I cannot tell you how grateful I am that I found this forum, so many lovely people who listen, understand and then respond to my posts. Thanks you all so much. I have a lot to learns and you are all helping me on that path.

GP has given me Lyrica, starting with one 100mg per day for one week and then 200mg next week and 300mg in the third week.

The side effects for me today were extreme giddiness and feel “weird” but as they do seem to work for some people I intend to persevere with them and hope that the side effects diminish over time. In fact even though I have only taken one tablet this evening my feet and legs are not as painful as they normally would be – but maybe that's a placebo effect, whatever it is I like the feeling of not feeling lots of constant pain!

Still haveing bladder problem which I think may be related to the other PN stuff, I may post about this later to get any ideas from people here.

Thanks to all of you.
