Well, thanks for all that! Guess I'll listen to my original instincts and not ask for neurontin. I'm already dizzy, don't need to be more so. Never thought to just take tylenol, but I'll give it a try!

Lyrica also made me sick quickly. I had some when I had Shingles neuropathy for a few
months, but one pill was all I ever took. I went back to Demerol until the neuropathy became better.

Right now I am suffering very bad foot pain and it may be neuropathy (certainly is) brought about by vascular problems due to the thick blood of Polycythemia Vera. It is
worse after I take a shot of Interferon A, so I will have to stop that. Maybe taking the timed released form could be better.

So I am posting just to warn that Lyrica could be as unpleasant as Neurontin for some people, although I see here that some do well with it. I must say it 100 % eliminated the neuropathy! But it made it difficult for me to breathe.

I am experiencing terrible pain in my legs from increased spasticity due to the cold. Cold or hot, I can't win

Debbie, don't ya wish it could be Spring and Fall all year long?
