Guest guest Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 He started me on 75mg twice a day. It really does not bother me that much. I was surprised. I get a little bit woozy but nothing that I cannot handle. Not drunk like I kind of thought I would be. It is ok. I hope it proves to help with this disease and helps the exhaustion as well as the pain. Thanks, hugs, Debra V. in AZ oriana_az@...> wrote: Hi Debra - good luck on the Lyrica. How much did they start you on. The side effects can be 'tricky' to say the least and it took me awhile to adjust to each dose increase but I did adjust. I'm up to 400mg/day now and it has been so good for me. hugs in Phx debra van ness ladybug75901@...> wrote: Thanks Jill. You are right. It just makes me feel so insufficient. I started the Lyrica today and it is not bad. I can function on it. I am not drunk or anything from it like I was afraid I would be. I don't know if it has helped the pain yet, but from what I understand it takes a week or so to work. I am going to apply for the Pfizer free prescription thing. I hope I can get it because I won't be able to afford this medication. The doc gave me samples this time. Guess I will ask for more samples the next time until the application goes through with Pfizer. Hugs and thanks, Debra V. --------------------------------- You rock.
