NF2 neuroma and Lyrica and scoliosis do not mix!!

I have a neuroma on my spine, and have been given Lyrica, for a pain killer, after a week, I have decided to stop due to pain caused by scoliosis, the scoliosis is worsening due to effect of neuroma and the Lyrica is not helping it, ok it tends to dull the pain slightly of the neuroma, but any pain killer would do that, it will not deflate the neuroma, I also have a non-healing broken rib which this 'medication' aggravates as well! Honestly I need surgery, THAT is the ONLY answer which I have had twice, successfully before, for the NF2! It may be a new drug but does not work for me! Does anybody else find that the Lyrica side effects are worse than the actual medical complaint which they are originally diagnosed for?
