Re: New Medication Question/a

[Guest guest]

Hi a,

So glad to see that you are FINALLY out of the hospital. That was a long stay at

Club Med.

My body couldn't tolerate Neurontin years ago when I found out I had Mito. I

wonder if Lyrica is manufactured and has the same additives as Neurontin does??

I am still thinking about using the Lyrica. I do have a lot of

peripheral neuropathy.

Let me know what you decide on the Lyrica. I hope they were able to find some

kind of combination of drugs to help with your migraines.

Thinking of you....

Hugs,

Ann-Marie

Ann-Marie,

During this past hospital stay, my neurologist suggested changing

from Neurontin to Lyrica. We didn't make any changes yet, as we were to

busy with med issues in the hospital, but he wants to pick this

discussion back up at my follow up appointment. Sorry I don't have any

experience with it, but I do know that my neurologist is starting to use

it in many patients for neuropathy.

Smiles,

a

Ann- Marie,

Hi! I will let you know what happens if I decide to switch to

Lyrica. I am not sure at this point yet. No, we have not found anything

to help with the migraines at this point. I have my " textbook " migraines

under control with the Neurontin, so I don't want to mess that up. We

have not found anything to help with the prevention of the ones that go

along with my stroke like episodes, but are finding out more issues,

besides the migraines, that are telling me that a stroke like episode is

going to happen, so that is progress, in some ways.

Take care.

Smiles,

a
