Doc is watching the pressure on my spinal cord, this could have been from that, but I am ok since the lower dose. hahahaha...my bed has a bullet proof vest on it as it has one of those pillow tops to protect.

Here is what this informational site has reported:
http://www.drugcite.com/?q=Lyrica While bladder incontinence is not listed per se, it could fall under other category... neurological. Not a "fun" side effect at all. The decongestant family...has been used for urinary incontinence in animals. Phenylpropanolamine specifically. But that is no longer FDA approved for humans. Pseudoephedrine is close... if you can tolerate the side effects you might try it to see if it helps the bladder sphincter get tighter. You have to ask for it now at most pharmacies and sign for it as it is now controlled to minimize methamphetamine labs' access.

Yes, spinal issues also.... cauda equina syndrome.
Compression could also affect the feet/legs.

The L/S spine does not show the herniations pressing on anything and the stenosis is moderate there, but the root nerves are compromised and inflamed. I wonder why predinsone hasn't been offered. I have to ask.
