No problem, I don't intend to drink any time soon
It seems that lyrica is starting to show some side effects, I had blurry vision in the morning but it passed quickly, I feel some congestive impairment, a bit harder to focus, slower to remember things, I don't like it, and it's only 50mg

Yeah it does effect me a little during the day, but I can stay on top of things most of the time. I was thinking of just taking it in the evening instead.

It's the evening dose only I'm taking, mornings are a bit slow but painless, during the day as it wears off I feel more normal but the pain is slowly going back

What time are you taking your evening dose?
I'm taking it at 8 pm, as I figured it will kick in and make me sleepy by 10, but not ready, actually gives me a bit of a buzz and only later at midnight I start to feel sleepy
Maybe I should take it at 6 pm instead?

I'm glad you've got some painless time there. I take evening dose at sevenish. I know what you mean I can't get to sleep straight away, but only after hour or so. The best time for me is when I wake up, no pain. As the day goes on it gets worse.

Same here, pain progress during the day
7ish sounds like good idea, first I though I need to take it straight before sleep as it will knock me down, nothing like that
I'm also taking 600 mg Alfa lipoic acid, pretty sure it can't work that fast and it's lyrica that knocks down the pain, but if you're not on it give it a try, my friend swears by it, he's getting along just fine with 25mg lyrica and ALA
If I didn't know him I would think it's too good to be true, but unfortunately every case is different
I'm happy I'm getting positive results, but still anxious about the cause and progression
