Hi Sanramort I hope that you have a positive outcome with Lyrica. It's not a narcotic I was told it is not even addictive which is why it's being prescribed so much for pain control. I found it controlled my pain extrmely well but I'd have been bald if my hair fell out at the rate it was! Not everyone experiences that negative effects of it and it's certainly been a life saver for some chrnic pain sufferes! All the best.

Hi Emily am so glad you got a good night sleep! Chronic pain as you know is very distrupting to sleep patterns and I hope for your sake that the Lyrica will be the wonder drug you have been waiting for. I know my neuro surgeon told me that huge doses can be taken increased slowely to keep you hopefully pain free! Not everyone experiences its negative side effects and I wish you all the best in your quest for zero pain levels! Take care

Lyrica , gabapentin and Cymbalta are not Narcotics .... yoru pain sounds like TMJ... maybe oyu need a night gauard to wear on your teeth to relax your jaw....
