I was put on Lyrica because of nerve pain in my right hip or what we think might be nerve pain. Then six months ago I was diagnosed with CRPS type 2. My pain is usually at a 9-10. Sometimes it goes down to an 8. It started in my left ankle after surgery, and is now in my entire left leg from my toes to my lower left back/butt. If you want more history just let me know, I am an open book and am open to any suggestions anyone might have. Even if you don't think it will help let me know because you never know. I am in so much pain, I don't know what to do. Please help.

Angelina, glad you posted this question. I responded to the previous thread on drugs-help.
I did take neurotin for severals years 3200mg and yes it helped me. Then my neurologist change me over to lyrica. It was good too, and I stayed on it till june 2011 when I felt I could taper off and end most of my meds.
