Anyone take Lyrica?

TweetThanks for the feedback guns!! I am getting it filled today then I will try it. I have been told to take a very low dose of 50mg broken up in 2 doses. From what I have read, I don't know if that will even do anything. I am a very petite person so sometimes things do work on me in small doses. If it makes me like a zombie, I won't be able to take it. I also am a bit afraid to gain the weight that I heard can happen from this. Some say it is better to be fat and out of pain but I beg to differ. Thanks again!

Tweetyou and me both. the fat gain will get out of hand if you let it. the ones they gave me are caps. they started me off at 100mg 3x a day and it didnt do anything for my nerve damage so they ramped it up to the max 200mg 3x a day. if you are sensitive to it, i would wait for the weekend or a day when you dont have to do anything cause it is no joke.

Tweethey baby1 also lmk how this stuff affects you especially if you are sensitive to stuff like i am. the pain mangement dr that i see thinks that i am a mutant because of how everything effects me. he also thinks i am a nut job because i would rather deal with pain than to take meds all the time.
