Wow, I did not know that Lyrica came out after they lost their patent for Neurotin. I am not surprised though. Pharm is big business and I don't believe those companies care who they hurt. That is what makes it so scary for people like us.
I also had terrible thoughts when I took Lyrica and I was only on it for 2 weeks.

I recently put my IVIG on hold. I am trying to be sure it really helps before I subject my body to them. I had a doctor warn me about them by giving me the horrible s/e that can happen and that it is big business for people now. The treatments cost 10,000. Of course, the doctor who told me that is not my Rheumo who I love. Who do you trust?!
