I have had several people complain and cannot take them, that's why there are several medication out there for the same symptons...try neurotin, for myself I cannot live without it.

Lyrica made me so loopy I had to get off it, and when the doctor heard how it affected me, he agreed I should stop it. After about a week of being on it, I couldn't remember anything. I couldn't remember how to use my cell phone and I could't remember how to get to my doctor's office inside the hospital. These things were literally causing me to have panic attacks. I couldn't handle that.

here are the side effects.... dont let this go to long if you have the side effects , call your dr.. or have your drug store look it up for you...If the side effect wont go away then you dont need the med.. I gained weight with it as it is called the little brother to Neurontin...

Call the dr..... dont assume

Lyrica is the worst thing on earth. You shouldn't be on it.

I took Lyrica for two weeks, and was MISERABLE!!! I sweat heavily, severe nausea,vomiting, dizzness, and EXTREME fatigue.The vomiting was so bad the Promethazine didn't even work! Also it caused a weird GERD/Acid reflux issue! ugh ugh ugh
