i was on neurontin and at the max dose. it wasn't helping.
so i switched to lyrica (of course more expensive). i've been on it for awhile and my pain is tolerable. sometimes worse than others. my feet are the worst.

however, i take 150mg four times a day.
perhaps spacing out the dose thru the day will help more.
just a thought. ask your dr.

I think Lyrica is the drug my sister is on for her Fibromyalgia and it has worked wonders for her. And yes, it is expensive.

My reactions to Lyrica were weight gain and sleepiness. Not good. IMHO
