The Lyrica and Amitriptyline are both used as Pain Blockers, and they are both very good medications
for doing so. I used to be on Amitriptyline. Now just on Lyrica
for my chronic burning pain from my sensory neuropathy. I would take them as they were prescribed, as they will help you with the tingling and nerve pain. I am 55 and also have Moserate Lumbar Spondylosis. Much of my neck and spine (tailbone) pain turned out to be Arthritis. You might want to see an Arthritis doctor as well.
