Hi there - its Alison here
You will probably be aware that I have just started Lyrica. I am currently taking 75mg, 2x daily. I have recently being having chest pains that come and go, im also having difficulty breathing out. ![]() I was just wondering whether any of you have had breathing difficulties whilst you were on Lyrica? Many thanks Alison -x-

I can't handle Lyrica, I have breathing trouble and also it knocks me out, I can barely stay awake. Keep on top of every little thing and report to your doctor. Writing things down as they happen can help. Good luck.

I had breath problems, chest pains and mood swings with Lyrica - please go and see your doctor ASAP as it sounds like it is not agreeing with you.
Goodluck |

I started taking Lyrica the end of January. Within about twenty minutes after my first dose I was having slight difficulty breathing, tightness in my chest, and, later, coughing. I continued taking it another couple days hoping the side effects would go away but they were getting worse so I discontinued it. Now, more than four months later, I am still having difficulty breathing and coughing. I am working with a pulmonolgist to find out what's going on.
If it were just an allergic reaction, the problem should have gone away soon after I discontinued the medication. Has anyone else experienced lung/breathing problems from Lyrica that continued well after you quit taking the medication? |

This hits home with me. I took Lyrica awhile back. Would have to look at the bottle for the exact time but I have had breathing problems ever since. I am again dealing with it today. I never even thought about that but my Dr. monetors my heart and breathing everytime I go in. When he was out of town awhile back I had to see my PA and she said I had some tightness in my chest but they cannot pinpoint the problem. I see him Wed. and again I have to bring this up.
Be sure and get a hold of your Dr. From what others are saying, it could be the culprit. I don't answer you post all of the time but I am always thinking of you. Ada |

I agree about calling your doc. I know I had a horrible time with breathing and an out of it feeling. My dosage was too high they felt for my body. For me it just was not a good med for me.
