I have to see me pain doctor this week. I switched from gabapentin to lyrica 300mg. First week I was getting great relief from lyrica but now my pain worse. I heard people get relief between 450-600mg lyrica. My pain doctor wont RX above 300mg as she feels side effects and efficiency does not warrant doses higher.

I have tried Tramadol 50mg 2 or 3 times but it didnt see to do anything.

My upper back and neck are burning and I have allodinya in those areas which is making things worse as you cant really touch the area. I am going crazy. I don't have a formal diagnosis. One Dr. thinks its small fiber and another doctor thinks its a central pain sensitization.

I am desperate for some relief. I am going to endocrinologist today as my Testosterone level is on low end of the spectrum and pregonlone is low too. Maybe thats why tramadol didnt work at all?

Is there any drugs that help the alloydinya that I can suggest to my pain doctor?
