Works pretty well on neuropathic pain. Warning! I ran out of it in Gallup, NM, and had to wait to get back to Blanding UT to get a renewal--three days. By then I had a headache like you would not believe. Never had a migraine before but this felt like one. Slightest sliver of light was blinding. In bed for three days. Instantly stopped when I got a refill. Pharmacist had not heard of this reaction ... Show Full Comment

I took Lyrica after having side effects from gabapentin. I began to have the same side effects from Lyrica, so I will never take this drug again. I had trouble breathing and swelling all over, including head, neck and throat.

I've had severe back and leg pain for over 15 years. I've been on several narcotic medications for over 10 years and 3 spinal surgeries, This has been like a miracle drug as far as the nerve pain goes. I still need narcotic pain medications for my back, but the Lyrica has helped my leg pain immensely. The only thing is the side effects worry me. Dizziness, blurred vision, weakness, deep, deep sleep, some depression, and WEIGHT GAIN. And I've heard horror stories about getting off this medication. I don't know if I'll ever need to come off of this, unless my insurance stops paying for it. But if and when the time comes, I'm extremely worried :(

I've taken Lyric two days and I had some relief. The second night was bad, I was so out of it I couldn't wake up. When I did wake I felt like I was drugged and for hours after being up I still felt light headed and sick and weak. I'm stopping until I contact my doctor.
