Set off great but then the weight gain happened, dosage gradually increased overtime due to my body becoming used to it (sorry can't find exact wording) ended up on max dosage (uk regs) which after a while lost the effect of pain management so GP took me off it where I had horrendous withdrawal effects for around 2-3 weeks where I just wanted to die (sorry but it's the truth)
Glad I'm off it and I'm in no rush to take that again .......but everybody is different I suppose arnt they?
Didn't work for me but it may for you. Like ants said major side effect wt gain. But way the pros et cons for yourself et if it helps:) Hope you having a semi pain free day et god bless
btw, i had Lyrica prescribed for me. the first day was ok. the second day i couldn't walk from the kitchen to the bedroom. it made me so tired that i got up and made it to the sofa, fell down on it and slept for 23-24 hrs straight. didn't know what hit me. i never took it again.
It has made a tremendous difference in my life. Weight gain, yes and I was already too large but while I am not pain free I most certainly have better days.
helps a little for me and im on the top amount of it 300mg twice a day really bad side effect tho you pile on weight gives me the munchies
