Funnily enough it’s the only one that’s worked for me & been on it for I reckon 6 years ish taking 2 x 300mg per day.
Originally Doc started me off with Prozac, Duloxetine & Amitriptyline but I put 4 stone on, was totally bloated so very uncomfortable, completely depressed so weaned myself off all that cocktail.
Everyone is different so a bit of trial and error a necessity I’m afraid.
However I’m still in a state but it’s about the best state i can tolerate 😵‍💫😬🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Be very careful I'm taking it. I did a few years ago and it made me suicidal. Not good

Lisa 1968, brain fog is a side effect of fibro but with some meds that can be more of a problem.

So memory loss is a side affect of Lyrica? Not Fibro?

I was happy and relaxed but the Doc keep increasing my levels to the point of just being in a stupid foggy haze. Memory was gone. I wouldn't remember coversations with my spouse which lead to argumenta. All the while the pain would continue to break thru no matter the dosage hence why I got off it. Good luck and I sure hopes it works for you.

I had a real bad reaction from Lyrica. It made me loopy, forgetful, no appetite but weight gain. Eventually had to wean myself off of it.
