Worried about possible side effects. Trying not to, but it's what I do best dh says. Would love your experences on this drug. I am very sensitive to drugs. For example if it says can cause you to get sleepy, I can count on falling asleep for at least a few hrs. My pcp told me to take another day off to make sure of no side effect the first 24 hrs. Have to wait see how if works for or against me I guess.

I took Lyrica for less than a week. I felt high as a kite....disoriented...nauseous and had muscle twitches. I also have a lot of side effects and am sensitive to most meds. Neurontin is about the only one I could tolerate in low doses. We are all different so maybe you will be one of the lucky ones that can handle it. My sister takes the highest dosage possible and has no side effects. I wish you luck!
