Default Pain spreading

I now have pain in my left groin, all other shooting pain is on both sides of my legs below the knees, however the groin pain is only on the left side. I am now also finding nerve pain in my teeth, funny but also on the left side.

My GP started me off on 75mg Lyrica last week, I'm going to see him to tell him off the pain spreading to my groin and teeth, maybe he will increase the dosage. The constant hands, fingers feet and toes hasn't stopped.

Hi Phil from Oz I too have it spreading to my lips. I got stressed today and felt get numb like a shot of novacaine. Are u diabetic. I am diabetic. Always more surprises. I don't take lyrica. This started a couple months ago and went away. Maybe I hope it will go away again

Hi PhilfromOz,
Do you think you are stressing yourself out and getting more symptoms?
All I know it is all relegated. And I know I have been very stressed my husband had operation And has lost a lot of shot term memory and is very hard to take of him very stressful. How long have you had PN.

I generally ignore it. But it is hard to work when u talk on the job am in customer service.
I hope you can get all of your symptoms calmed down. I don't take lyrica did but stopped. May consider it again for numbness although it went away and is now back.

No I don't think its me stressing, I'll take whatever is on the horizon, what will be will be. It only reminds me it is there when pain strikes, the throbbing and numbness and the burning is there but I put it aside generally.

That is a plus .... The numbness on my lip finally went away since 9am this morning. I am wondering does lyrica help the PN from getting worse or is it a band aid.. In k now none of this is fun. And if u let it isn't can take over ur daily. Life.

its to mask the pain, it has no effect on whats causing the neuropathy issue, which is why people need higher doses, because of tolerance issues.
