Re:Update... second day of Lyrica-- Questions for others on Lyrcia

[Guest guest]

Hi Debra,

I've been on lyrica since Jan. Started at 75mg at bedtime and slowly

increased to my current dose of 300. I see my rh next tues. and I'm sure he

will increase it again to 450. I didn't notice any immediate results, but I am

sleeping better (much better) I do have alot more energy but I don't think it

helped a whole lot with my pain. But I can function a whole lot better than

before I was on it. It helped mostly with my nightly leg pain that kept me from

falling asleep. I haven't gained any weight, thank God. Have some slight

swelling in my fingers and feet. Nothing major. I did feel a little

lightheaded each time the dose was increased, but that subsided after a few days

to a week. I don't take anything else for pain, except cymbalta. I really

don't want to go the narcotic route. But I think I do have a high pain

threshold. Wish you luck.

Hugs, Judy/WI
