Hello Denise,
Nice to meet you. So sorry to meet you like this! Well at least we will have alot to talk about. Well have to laugh about something


My Name is Charmaine. I live in Sioux City, Iowa. Iam 46 yrs young.
I have fibromyalgia. I have had this thing for 5 years.:mad : I have been on Lyricia for 2 years. I've gained 35 pounds(hate my self and all mirror's). because of the lyricia . I have had alot of side affects from this drug, like the weight gain, my tounge swells up(alot) my vision , nerves on top of head, so tired. And on and on. So my problem is I have tried twice in a year to stop taking Lyricia.
Oh man, I get like really sick, ichy ,cant eat, really tired. First time I lasted 22 days second time I lasted 9 days.
I feel like a 80 yr old .By the way my husband is very , very supportive. He helps me out as much as he can. Could not have asked for a better man! I Tell My husband " I hate to go to bed cause in the morning the pain starts all over again" Not that it ever goes away but at least I got thur the day
