Guest guest Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Hi All, Here in Arkansas we are having great weather for a couple a days, of course it wont last. I'm OK here in the ouskirts of Pine Bluff. I'm not moving anywhere anytime soon. I just have to get along w/family membners better to survive!!! They still don't have aclue as to what it's like to suffer the beast and unless they are under IT'S attack they'll never have one, a clue that is! 9 mos. lyrica, now 450 mgs. per day, no wieght gain, though it's not the miracle drug it was in the beginning it still relieves the morning stiffness which is still a blessing. I haven't had much need for RX pain kilers in past few days,what a blessing, I can save them for the coming rainy days,lol.. Now have old fashion Darvon 65 to go w/hydrocodone which is for my worst pain. I can't say I'll take them as prescribed when I am in agony. Adderall is making big difference in energy and is better than Strattera for my ADD. 750mgs. Robaxin 4x day if needed for muscle cramps and spasms however I seldom take that much! I slept in moms house while the power was out to my camper due to fell limb on powerline. Lastnight I was back in MY comfee ultra plush booty rest,WTF? What? I'm back in the repair buisness of my little camper for the sake of selling it. Hoping for atleast a30footer soon along w/my on mobile laptop. Alls I have to be is a good little mamas boy and she might,might reward my goodness. Sux having to be good for such reasons. Why not just BE good for GOODNESSS sake,no pun! OK end communication. over and out!!! GOD Bless US w/great or better day ! ! ! . . . .............................................. tha MAN Arkansas GOD grant me the serenityto accept the things I cannot change the courage to change the things I canand the wisdom to know the difference.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Thanks I was about to ask about Lyrica and weight gain, the doctor prescribed it for me yesterday and increased my cymbalta to 120mg. Also gave me zanaflex (not sure what that is for) hopefully between new meds and weather I will get back on track. I was afraid of the lyrica because I don't want to gain any weight. I have lost 120lb and I do not want to regain it. Glad to hear you are doing better. nancy Honeycutt wrote: Hi All, Here in Arkansas we are having great weather for a couple a days, of course it wont last. I'm OK here in the ouskirts of Pine Bluff.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Hello- I am new here but thought I would jump in. I am on 400mg/day of the Lyrica and have, in fact, been able to loose almost 50 pounds while on it. I have had small weight gains but mostly I have been able to loose (a choice on my part to go to low carbs to control sugar). So it is possible to not gain weight on Lyrica. Good luck ps - I have to say though that with every dosage increase, I have felt increased hunger. I just eat healthier things.
