I was given it for nerve pain which is really overall my whole body. I get a lot of sharp pin stabs and intense tingling. Also I have deep muscle pain in my back and it actually helps with that as well.

You know I really didn't realize how much worse those sx had gotten until I went without the Lyrica for a few days. So I have really learned to appreciate the med. And I'm not a person who likes to depend on them...but have decided if they work, why not been somewhat more comfortable.

When I first started on it it was just 50 mg once at bedtime. But a couple months ago he increased it to 100mg twice a day.

what kind of neurological pain are you experiencing? It's not fun and I hope you can get some relief soon.
