lyrica

Avatar f tn I have facial neuralgia and nerve pain consistent with post herpetic neuralgia and I also had piercing neck and shoulder pain, the neurontin helped all of this and the Lyrica did nothing for it, especially the facial neuralgia. Plus the Lyrica made me gain weight. These doctors push the new meds all the time and the old ones works just fine, sometimes better. I must caution you that there is no miracle pill that will put you back to normal.
553995 tn?1332018840 I have a question for anyone reading this......Can Lyrica be taken "As Needed" ?? The neuralgia aspects of my symptoms are rampant and since Lyrica focuses on calming the nerve endings, I was hoping when I was flaring, I could take it then. I recently used one of those rubberband exercisers to tighten my chest muscles and shoulders. Ten reps 3 times a day. Not much, easy going.
Avatar m tn I have come to the conclusion I too want to rid myself of these medications.I have been on Wellbutrin 150mg 2 times a day , Suboxone since 2007 and Lyrica for about 2 years.This past Christmas made me realize that this is not a life but a prison.I ran out of both for 3 1/2 days and thought if anyway possible I would just die please the withdrawals wereso bad. My wife is fed up with it.She asked me to leave the house until I can get off this medicine.
Avatar m tn You can check out the Lyrica Survivors group on Facebook if you want. It seems like Wellbutrin is another one that people have had problems with. If it is not MS, it could be from the medications you have taken.
Avatar f tn I updating my question. I am wanting to get off effexor 375 and wellbutrin 300 ... There has been a suggestion that siroquil (?) be added at night. I think this is just another something I will have to get off of. I am so confused ... In two weeks I will know what route I will take. I am very concerned about this process ....
Avatar n tn One of my doctors and I decided to take me off the Paxil and try Wellbutrin. My family doctor advised against it so know I am being weaned off the Paxil with "one of its sister drugs". I am having severe withdrawal: depression, sleepliss nights, headaches that mimic migraines, blurred vision, dizziness, irritable bowel, etc. The bowel problems alone make adhering to a specific schedule virtually impossible.
Avatar m tn Anybody taking rivotril and lyrica together? It seems to work well for me.
20632981 tn?1503687567 ve been on the Zoloft for years and the Wellbutrin only going on 3 weeks. The reason I am trying the Wellbutrin because the Zoloft isn't working good anymore. But she hasn't taken me off of the Zoloft. Thanks to both of you for answering me back.
Avatar n tn Last November I was prescribed Wellbutrin by a psychiatrist. It worked wonderfully until about a month ago I began experiencing very strong “jerks” when I was about to fall asleep. My whole body would jerk up and I would be gasping for breath. Then my heart would start racing until I calmed down. I've always had little body spasms when falling asleep, so I didn't freak out about these, I just thought I was having exceptionally strong ones.
Avatar f tn Hi, I also have Fibromyalgia and RA. I don't believe in taking narcotics either...My Doctors, however have me on a few anti depressant for depression and pain management...I've been on Lyrica for a few years and I did get some relief..I'm on Wellbutrin, and also Effixor, and I've gained about 50pds..which dosent help my joints either..It dose sound like Fibro to me my pain is burning and deep dull pain..Istarted weening myself off Lyrica a few days back...
Avatar f tn Most of all of any of my Drs. have always told me that it usually takes at least two weeks for you to start feeling better once you start on any new med for depression. I would give it a little more time and try to think positive that it is going to help. The mind can be a powerful thing, look how it can sometimes react to just a placebo. If you still are not feeling better in a week I would contact your DR., maybe the dose needs to be increased.
177382 tn?1253041140 my dr wants me to try it was wondering about any experiences. she was not big on lyrica but would have given it to me to try if i wanted. i usually take flexeril and ultram. i'm a lil leary of an antidrepressent b/c i was on paxil and had suicidal issues with that.
Avatar f tn I have been taken off of Effort and put on Lamictal,Lyrica,and Cymbalta. I am almost at a loss. I know that going to a gym and eating right would help but wondering if I am fighting a losing battle.
1205076 tn?1310609559 I also take Effexor XR, Wellbutrin, Lopid, tessalon perle, sonata, robaxin, nexium (for 3 months now), benicar, toprol XR, Ultram, Lyrica, aspirin, I cannot take NSAIDs anymore due to an acute kidney failure 2 years ago. I tell you all of the background so you will know all the variables. I have a sleep study on Mar 1, but I was hoping to hear a suggestion as to what it might be before that. Thank you.
Avatar m tn Will swelling and itching go away by continuing to take Lyrica. I started in my hands and feet. I have been taking it a month and the symptoms are daily but are mild and seem less and less. Today, it is only swelling on the top of my ear with slight itching. Should it continue taking it, because i heard that discontinuing could cause a seizure.
Avatar f tn Has anyone been prescribed lyrica? I have, and have had great results with it for nerve pain in my right arm and hand. Opinions, please. My two other posts with more description vanished, so I will leave with this lol.
Avatar m tn Does anyone take lyrica and if so, has it made a difference resting at night? Thanks.
Avatar f tn i just started lyrica yesterday...75mg...only taken it twice...could it ALREADY be helping my symptoms or is the "good feeling" just in my head?
131817 tn?1209529311 I started Lyrica in Nov. O7'. I felt horrible for a long time. I went slowly. One pill a week, until I reached 150mg. I hurt all that time. After I had that 150mg ( not much) I started feeling better. It took so long.....more than a month. Finally, I did feel better. I did have breakthrough pain, nothing like I had before, but stabbing here and there. I still do! My Rhemy asked me to up my dose. I refused, as I had sides that put me asleep so often...
5164523 tn?1366525959 so for awhile when i missed the lyrica, i thought oh, i have vicodin...but as Vicodin off, more and more the lyrica helped.....but when I missed doses of everything..., It was by my wife keeping a diary, that I realized I was missing so many just a few days or even one...the Oh! went on... And now I have taken 3yrs without feeling the sick,sweaty feeling I felt when I missed dose.. I did not gain weight ..
