My GP has prescribed Lyrcia 75 mg until the rest of the blood test come back. Problem is this isn't helping In fact now I'm getting pain in my groin. Not blaming him but I'm getting pain In different parts of my body now. What ever is going on is moving quickly.

Hi Phil,

how long have you been taking Lyrica? It need to get into your system before you can feel the benefits. Be patient. Call your dr Monday and let the dr know
What you are experiencing.

Symptoms move like cockroaches when the light comes on. This could be from starting Lyrica or it could be unrelated. If you make entries and give dates and circumstances, sometimes it takes the passage of time to truly figure things out. Even with a journal things get pretty foggy, but if there is an action that gets a repeatable reaction, that is something you can carry to your Dr. Good Luck, Ken in Texas.

Pain in groin when I sit, when I get up it hurts for three or four steps and then comes good. Intermittent shooting pain up both sides of lower legs. Burning toes now when walking. Have only been taking Lyrica 3 days, so probably not long enough yet to take effect.

I need to toughen up a bit I think.

Than you, I think you're right. I was a bit silly to think changes would happen in just 3 days. That's a great idea with the journal because I do tend to forget things, I will start one straight away.
I need to toughen up a bit also. There are a lot of people far worse off than me.
Thanks for your help.
