My doctor suggested introducing Lyrica to help with fybromyalgia pain and the fog. Just wanting to know if anyone could share their experiences with this medication. I have had some adverse side effects from other medications and have concerns. Would appreciate any feedback from other fybro warriors that have tried this new medicine or are currently using. Also it is expensive and any suggestions on alternatives are welcome. Thank you for any input.
@A MyFibroTeam Member. Hey there, hope you are doing well. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. By the way I found Battlefield of the Mind by Joyce Meyer on my bookshelf today. Weird part is neither my husband nor myself have any idea where it came from. Lol. We are going to use to begin our home studies. God is so good my friend.
heart surgeon had me on fentanyl patch. WHOA! I started hallucinating big time. Did you know walls look like๐ฑpainting when they melt in a running back forth way? cool but get it off me.

Hey girl! Ive been on Lyrica for years because I couldnt take Neurotin. It has helped with neuropathy but I have gained weight and I think it makes my sleepiness worse. My mom says you have to take the good with the bad. There are quite a few side affects listed. โบ๐น๐๐๐พ๐พ๐พ๐โ
@A MyFibroTeam Member, when I took lyrica, I had no significant reduction of pain, but I had the wakefulness early in the morning. So paired with insomnia made for a very sleepy me. I would not get to sleep until between 3 and5 am and I was full awake at 7. Very annoying.
