I have recently been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and have been prescribed
Lyrica

I really hate hospital doctors
He did give me a new tablet which trying to read prescription "T 6
lyrica
75mg twice aday" And that was that, a few blood tests and that was me done and out of the hospital very sure I am never to be let in with this again as they " do not deal with either fibromyalgia or Complex Regional Pain

VIRAL MENINGITIS Joint and muscle pain 9 months after episode- No hospital doctor can explain it. Anyone else?
I now take no drugs as they had strong side effects-
lyrica
causing mood swings and weight gain and still the aching continued. Getting in a hot pool and exercising is just as effective as pain killers.

Week 4 Run 3 - A distraction
C25K is more a physical thing to me than a mental thing (good job the way I'm feeling), so this morning I once again donned the
lyrica
and set-off on my next run.

Time Off for good behaviour [taking meds and not overdoing things] - I know I am extremely lucky. Not bragging, just saying its possible.
I take Tegretol for my epilepsy, cannot have anti inflamatory meds because of reflux, but have
Lyrica
, Amitriptyline, co-dydramol, Vit D, migraine meds too but I forget that name. Wishing you all good health. Soft hugs

Has anyone stopped taking Lyrica (Pregabalin)
I didn't have this pain before taking
Lyrica
, so have wondered if the pain is just a coincidence, a withdrawal symptom, or if this is what my Fibro will be like without the
Lyrica
?

Why would something like lyrica be prescribed rather than plaquenil?
I've seen lots of talk on here about plaquenil, not so much about gabapentin or
lyrica
. My GP prescribed me gabapentin, but it made me feel a lot worse, so he's now thinking
lyrica

Does Amitriptyline cause bloating, swelling, increase in weight? And is there an alternative for someone who has epilepsy and reflux?
I also take
Lyrica
, Co-Dydramol, Tegretol for epilepsy and cannot use anti-inflamatories as I have reflux. If you could give me some suggestions for my doctor to investigate I would appreciate it. Thank you for your help! Soft hugs

Anyone else out there diagnosed with small fibre neuropathy and a mixed connective tissue after coeliac?
On
lyrica
for the neuropathy and hydroxychloroquine for the lupus symptoms. I have custom orthotics now which I would be lost without, still can't stand for more than a few hours though.

Could it be nerve pain?
Now I'm on
Lyrica
50 mg three times daily, the pain isnt any better, in fact i's worse. I used to have (ok) days, but not anymore. The pain gets really worse in the evening/night, it leaves me in tears even if I'm sitting doing nothing. I'm so confused. Any suggestions?
