On Lyrica and Side Effects.

I don't trust MOST drugs. I take 3 minor ones and no side effects from these.

But many others, omgoodness... Here's is info on Lyrica side effects. And could be same scenerio on gabapentin. Nothing surprises me anymore.

Lyrica is the worst drug to withdraw from if you ask me. Unfortunately I have gone through it with several, and Lyrica takes forever to safely reduce.

It actually covers both. My neuropathy was so bad I was beside myself without opioids, just Lyrica and Buprenorphine. I seems to be covering both legs quite well and most of my feet pain, at least about 65-70%. This difference makes me able to deal with my feet after so many years. There have been a few tough days but that seems affected by the weather or if I am overtired. It is truly life changing, I 'm walking a mile 4xwk and doing 5 mi. on a stationary bike about every other day. Since I have been now released from restrictions as of Jan 1, I can set up my pilates machine and work on strengthening my back.

So sorry to take forever to respond. The stimulator seems to cover my legs and much of the pain in my feet, though they will never be OK and I am still restricted in how far I can walk. I am now able to walk a mile but beyond that is resulting pain. I have somehow regained my balance over time as I never before could ride a bike but now do quite often and love the fun. I was an aficionado of biking for many years and lost it with my diagnosis. I will check back for any more needed questions. Good luck, I have actually regained my old life and happiness though it certainly was a long road.
