I have question, are there anyone out there on Lyrica? Is it better than Neurontin? or can someone explain it to me. Hp - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, April 19, 2008 6:12 PM Subject: tmic-digest Digest V2008 #178

I have been on Lyrica for more than 2 years. Itake 450 mg per day and have not found negative side effects. It has proven helpful to me in lessening the banding and pins and needles sensations!

Re: [TMIC] Re: tmic-digest Digest V2008 #178
Good morning. I'm on 450 mg/day of Lyrica. I still have a great deal of pain but the Lyrica takes the edge off. I was on Gabapentin for a while but it wasn't helping at all. I have never taken Neurontin so I can't compare.

I've been on Lyrica for quite some time and have never tried Neurontin so I can't help you...sorry!

Re: [TMIC] Re: tmic-digest Digest V2008 #178
Harold I've had TM since '02 and was on neurontin for years. I was up to 2400mg a day. Then Lyrica appeared on the market. When I asked my neuro he just said it was the newest drug on the market for neuropathic pain, seemed to have less side effects. Now as we know we are all very unique and so is TM. Many tried to switch from Neurontin to Lyrica but were not able to tolerate it. I take 150mg. twice a day. Tho now after reading that some are on 450mg. a day I might ask about increasing it. I have quite a bit of pain. I also take 60mg. of cymbalta (this drug is used for depression but was found to help many with neuropathic pain.) Two birds with one stone! I hope this has been helpful.

Re: [TMIC] Re: tmic-digest Digest V2008 #178
I was given Neurontin in the early days of my illness. It made me very lethargic, and I was unable to tolerate it. My doctor then prescribed Lyrica. I take 400 mg twice a day. I also take 60 mg of Cymbalta, Vicodin three times a day, and also use a 50 mg Fentanyl patch. I still have pain, but I cannot imagine what it would be like if I were not taking these medications.
